Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who has a passion for writing and storytelling, there are numerous thoughtful and meaningful gifts that would not only enhance his creative abilities but also encourage him to continue pursuing his passion. Here are a few ideas that might be perfect for him:

1. Writing workshop or class: Consider gifting your son a writing workshop or class, either online or in-person, where he can improve his skills and learn from experienced writers. This would provide him with invaluable knowledge, feedback, and the opportunity to connect with other aspiring writers.

2. Writing prompts or creativity journal: Help ignite his creativity with a book of writing prompts or a dedicated creativity journal. These resources will inspire him to explore different writing styles, genres, and ideas, and may even spark new story ideas.

3. Personalized leather-bound journal: A high-quality, personalized leather-bound journal would be a cherished gift for any writer. Engrave his name or initials on the cover to add a special touch, and encourage him to fill the pages with his thoughts, stories, and ideas.

4. Book subscription service: Consider signing him up for a book subscription service that delivers a new book to his doorstep each month. You can choose a genre based on his preferences or opt for a service that curates diverse and thought-provoking reads to broaden his literary horizons.

5. Writing software or editing tools: Invest in professional writing software or editing tools that can help him refine his work. Options like Scrivener, Grammarly, or ProWritingAid can assist with organization, grammar, and overall writing quality.

6. Literary-themed accessories: Show your support for his love of writing with literary-themed accessories. Whether it's a cuff bracelet with an inspiring quote from his favorite author or a mug engraved with a writing-related pun, these gifts would be a constant reminder of his passion.

7. Personalized book embosser: Allow him to add a personal touch to his book collection by gifting him a personalized book embosser. With this creative tool, he can imprint his name or a unique symbol on the inside cover of his favorite books, making them even more special.

8. Subscription to a writing magazine or literary journal: Encourage his growth as a writer by subscribing him to a writing magazine or literary journal. These publications often feature tips, techniques, and inspiring stories from established authors, which would undoubtedly motivate him to continue honing his craft.

Remember, the most important aspect of your gift is the thought and support behind it. By choosing something that reflects his passion for writing and storytelling, you are not only giving him a physical gift but also encouraging and nurturing his talents and interests.

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.”
