Hot gift ideas
Sitting down to create can become a ritual.
For example, I need a hot cup of coffee while I work.
Undeniably creating life stories is a lot more pleasurable with a filled mug in hand!
So try Target for affordable gift ideas or Victoria’s Basement for something special.
Handy gift ideas
Now I know some will laugh but writing gloves are essential for creating in cold weather.
For example, on early winter mornings the backs of my hands freeze when I type!
Indeed my gloves were knitted by my late Nanny decades ago.
But you can buy stylish gift ideas at Storiarts or The Writer’s Glove.
Level-up your spelling
Grammarly software is not a tangible gift but it is definitely useful.
Certainly it’s like having a copy editor in your pocket!
For example, it will effortlessly correct your spelling, grammar, word choice, style, tone and more.
Importantly there are paid and free plans for gift ideas.
