It can be a nightmare to know what to buy for someone for Christmas can’t it. Especially if you’re sick of getting the same old thing year after year.
Below you will find some great ideas that the blogger or writer in your life will love.
Stationery
This isn’t one of those things where you have to wonder if the person already has it. Trust me, bloggers and writers will have stationery – and they will still love you for buying them more. It’s an addiction haha.

A Laptop
If you reallyย want to splurge, then a laptop will be a welcome gift for a writer or blogger. My personal favourite laptop brand is the Acer. I have tried loads of brands over the years, and the Acer is the only brand that has consistently lasted me more than a year (I am on it a lot).

A Camera
This idea is more for bloggers than writers. Most bloggers take pictures to use on their blogs or their social media channels and a good camera is a must.
Take a look here for ideas.
A Phone with A Good Camera
While it’s nice to have a decent camera, often, picture ops are spotted in the moment and a good camera phone is essential for bloggers. A good option is the Samsung Galaxy S10+ as it has multiple cameras, but personally, I prefer the Xperia for photo quality.
Get the Samsung here and the Xperia here.
A Rocketbook
A Rocketbook is the perfect gift for writers and bloggers who enjoy writing by hand (or take a lot of notes on the go) but still want the ease of zapping their writing to a computer without having to type up a load of notes. You can read my review of the Rocketbook here to find out more about how it works.

A Diary
Being organised is a must for writers and bloggers, and a page a day is essential for to-do lists etc.

A Chocolate Hamper
While not limited to only being for bloggers and writers, a chocolate hamper is a great gift to get your writer friends through those marathon writing sessions without them completely losing their minds (or maybe that’s just me).

Wine
Wine is always a good choice right? Perfect to sip on those evenings spent catching up on blogmin tasks.

A Course to Help Them Improve Their Skills
When it comes to blogging and writing, there’s always something new to learn no matter how long you’ve been doing it. A blogging or writing course is a great gift as it helps to further your friend’s career.
Look here for blogging courses and here for writing courses.
Some VA Hours
A VA is a virtual assistant and they can help with all sorts of blogging tasks. If your friend is a blogger, then they are more likely pushed for time, and being able to outsource some tasks is often a life saver. There are any VAs out there, but you’ll find some I personally recommend below.
For tech work, The Blog Genie. For graphic design and general blogmin tasks, KK VA Services. For Pinterest services, The Blog Assistant.
I hope this guide helps you to choose some gifts for the writers and bloggers in your life.
