Want something really original? Try this Writers vs. Writers Insult Chart – Famous, sharp-tongued literary lights point their poison pens at each other in this snarky chart of great writer-vs-writer put-downs. The jabs span the centuries and include Jane Austen (“You have delighted us long enough”), Shakespeare (“Away, thou issue of a mangy dog!”), Noel Coward (“He is completely unspoiled by failure.”) and many more, arranged by theme.

Or this one is nice as well – either way, your writer or reader will be happy.

You can’t go wrong with a good Lap Desk! This one has a built-in mouse pad, wrist pad, and holders for a tablet or phone.

And if you’re spending a little more on your writer, you can always gift them a Masterclass submission. They have a whole section for writers, with authors like Neil Gaiman, James Patterson, Margaret Atwood, Dan Brown, and Judy Blume. And, of course, there are tons of other classes your writer might enjoy, like how to play an electric guitar or how to negotiate a hostage situation or how to make a good cocktail.

For that holiday bling, why not give your writer a Swarovski Pen inset with crystals? Impress those readers at their next book signing, or inspire them while they’re working on their journal.
