Five Star Gift Ideas

When it comes to gift ideas for someone who has a specific interest, like your son's interest in ghostwriting, it can be both challenging and exciting to find something that aligns with their passion. Here are a few unique and meaningful gift ideas that are perfect for a budding ghostwriter:

1. Creative Writing Course or Workshop: Help your son enhance his ghostwriting skills by enrolling him in a creative writing course or workshop focused on storytelling and character development. This gift will not only provide him with valuable knowledge and techniques but also allow him to connect with fellow writers who share the same passion.

2. Personalized Writing Journal: Gift him a personalized writing journal with his name or initials engraved on the cover. This will not only serve as a practical tool but also inspire him to jot down his ideas, outline his stories, or take notes about his ghostwriting experiences.

3. Professional Writing Software: Consider gifting him professional writing software like Scrivener or Final Draft, which are commonly used by writers, including ghostwriters. These software tools provide various features that can help streamline the writing process, such as organizing notes, tracking progress, and formatting manuscripts.

4. Biographies of Famous Ghostwriters: Encourage and inspire your son by giving him biographies or memoirs of famous ghostwriters. Books like "Secrets of the Ghostwriters: Successful Ghostwriting Stories & Insider Tips" by Marta Tandori or "Ghostwriters: Hollywood Haunts, Artful Autographs, & Letters to the Dead" by Jacquie Rogers offer insights into the world of ghostwriting and the careers of successful ghostwriters.

5. Writing Retreat or Conference: Consider organizing a writing retreat or sending your son to a writing conference where he can learn from experienced ghostwriters, attend workshops, and network with industry professionals. This immersive experience will provide opportunities for growth and help him gain a better understanding of the craft.

6. First Edition or Signed Book: If your son is a fan of a particular author or ghostwriter, try to find a first edition or signed copy of their book. This gift not only shows thoughtfulness but also adds a unique touch to his personal library.

7. Membership to a Writing Community: Consider gifting your son a subscription to a writing community or a membership to an online platform that specializes in ghostwriting. These platforms often provide resources, forums for discussions, job opportunities, and mentorship programs, which can be beneficial for his career.

Remember, the most significant aspect of any gift is to show your support for your son's passion. By selecting a thoughtful gift that aligns with his interest in ghostwriting, you are not only acknowledging his talent but also encouraging him to pursue his dreams in a field he loves.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
