The second Wednesday of the month we focus on a a favorite series or a favorite author for the “Gift Idea For The Book Lover” post! This time around, I thought we twist things a bit and say THANK YOU to the authors that write the fabulous books we oh so love!!
Many of us find our ‘quiet time’ in the books we read. We escape into the world the author has created and spend countless hours exploring! We have several book boyfriends and this is the ONLY time it’s okay to have a few! I have found my passion in books and because of books I have discovered a many great things about myself and what I want to do with my life. So THANK YOU for sharing these wonderful stories with us all!!
This week we bring you Gift Ideas for the Author!

That Novel Isn’t Going to Write Itself — Handlettered Spring Green Notebook Journal — 32 pages — Gift for Authors, Writers, Book Lovers
$15.00 (plus S&H)
There’s nothing better than a brand new journal or notebook. The feeling of freedom when you flip open to the first blank page is one that never fails to conjure a smile.
This 5″ x 8″ journal features a gorgeous, slightly textured spring green cover (or kraft, if you choose) with the quote ‘That novel isn’t going to write itself’ across the front, handlettered just for you. The interior features 32 (64, counting the front and back!) milky-white pages, ready for you to start jotting down notes for your next NYT bestseller!
The quote was handlettered and then printed. The journal was handmade.

Writer Gift (Humor Keychain, Hand Stamped)
$10.00 (plus S&H)
Any writer, whether published or not, will enjoy this humorous writer key chain. If you’re currently writing a book, it’s hard not to talk about the process. If you’ve just published your book, then you’re consumed by all the marketing activities that you need to do to get the word out about your book.
To create this unique key chain, I hand stamped the words “ASK ME ABOUT MY BOOK” on a round piece of plated metal. The exact placement of the words may vary. (See photos.) Both the copper and pewter colors are on the darker side with a blackish finish. (The black is especially visible on the back of the key chain.) You can choose a hammered or smooth finish (see photos).
This key chain has such a nice weight to it. It’s not super heavy, but it’s also not flimsy. You wouldn’t need to worry about it getting bent when you throw your keys in your bag. I attached the metal to a large stainless steel key ring. I love that this keychain is a little battered and worn looking–that’s how I always feel after I finish a large writing project!
This metal key chain makes a great gift for a writer. It comes gift-boxed.
