Do you have a writer in your life that you're trying to buy gifts for? It can be hard to anticipate what they might want or need, but don't worry, we have you covered.

I went through a bunch of websites to find the best deals for the writers in your life. But these are mostly for Cyber Monday and maybe the holidays, so you'd better get buying fast!

Let's dive in.

They also have this new Smarter Writer, which allows you to digitize your notes!

Pens

I am such a snob when it comes to the pens I use with my notebooks; I need something that flows and just feels right. Here are a few of the pens I really like that you should check out.

Everyday

• Sharpie Gel
  • The Deal: These are around 30% off right now, and I love how long they last.
  • Price: 9.85 | Amazon

• Pilot G2 (Gel Pens)
  • The Deal: These are running around 20% off right now. Writers go through these by the box. Cyber Monday is the best time to stock up for the entire year.
  • Price: $18.97 | Amazon

Special Pens

• Rotring 600
  • The Deal: These are roughly half off, depending on which size you get. They're built like a tank. It has a solid brass body with a satisfying weight.

Coffee and Accessories

I am always chugging coffee, and not just because I have a newborn at home. Sometimes writing feels better with a steaming mug of the hot stuff next to me. And it makes me way more productive than booze.

• Ember Mug 2
  • The Deal: You can save up to 40% off on their website on mugs and travel mugs. These keep coffee hot for hours, preventing the "cold cup" tragedy during a flow state.
  • Price: $149.95 | Ember Website
• Atlas Coffee Club
  • The Deal: First Bag Free with subscription (code FREECOFFEE) or up to $50 off gift subscriptions. I love tasting coffee while writing, and it can keep you alert and on your toes while typing.
  • Price: $15-50 | Atlas Coffee Club Website

Laptop Desk

I write on the couch all the time, and this saves my neck and back. It's such a simple tool, but I use it all the time and don't ever want to go back.

• Laptop Desk
  • The Deal: You can save $10 on the one I use every day and love. The laptop desk can fit laptops up to 15.6 inches, and I use it pretty much everywhere I sit.
  • Price: $26 | Amazon

Summing It All Up

These are the kinds of gifts that I ask for every year, and I do find that as a writer, they are very useful. You can come back to this time and time again to get more ideas or see any of the other products these places are selling in order to think outside the box as well.

Got a gift you think I should include? Tell me about it!
