INSTANT Gifts for Writers

December 5, 2017 by Melanie Leave a Comment

In a hurry? Last minute shopping? Here's a great list of instant gifts for writers.

[tweet_box design=”default” float=”none”]In addition to being a godsend when you are in a rush, these are some of the most LOVED gifts any writer wants.[/tweet_box]

There are literally hundreds of fabulous “instant” gifts you can give your favorite writer.  Here are a few of my all time favorites.

If you want to give your “instant” gift in person,   print out the Amazon Description Page and insert it into an envelope or in a beautifully wrapped box. Depending on the gift, you might be able to time an email delivery announcement to arrive the next day.

 

In my mind, Amazon Prime comes close to trumping any other instant  gift … so if your budget allows for it. Choose this one first.  Your recipient does NOT need a Kindle device, they can download various free reader apps on their computer or tablet.  They will be able to borrow  Amazon Prime eligible books from a selection of a million titles.

A gift card in any amount is always welcome. Your recipient will think of you every time they download a new book!  With this electronic gift card you can choose a standard delivery message, an animated message OR a message that includes your photo!

 

Here is a great choice of Gift Cards that enables you to print your own Greeting Card.  Stuff your card in an envelope and you are done!

If your typing speed is slower than a snail, you should consider DICTATING YOUR BOOK!   Great gift for yourself!!

Dragon Speaking Naturally just keeps on getting better and better.  It takes a bit of time to set up and “teach” the software to recognize your voice, but once you do you are off at the speed of talking.    Send this as a gift, so your recipient can download and register it in their own name.

Here’s how to give Kindle Books as GIFTS

When you are looking at a Kindle Book page  … look in the column on the right side.

Here are some of my favorite Kindle Gifts. They are perfect for writers and self-publishers.

 

Gary Webb’s Three Book series titled PREPARE, PUBLISH, PROMOTE  is a fabulous foundation for author/publishers.  It gives you a great foundation and loads of great tips on writing, publishing and personal productivity.  I highly recommend getting all three books for anyone interested in book publishing and even for those who have already started.

If the writer in your life complains about NO TIME to write.  Get them this invaluable book.  It will change their writing life!   The 8-Minute Writing Habit: Create a Consistent Writing Habit That Works With Your Busy Lifestyle (Growth Hacking For Storytellers #3)

 

Writing a book is one thing, but if the writers in your life  plan on selling their books on Kindle, they MUST also become book marketing savvy.  Here are my top three picks. Get one or all three!

You simple can’t lose with Joanna Penn’s timeless book.  It is one of the best on the topic and pretty well covers everything a new book marketer needs to know.  How To Market A Book (Books for Writers 1)

 

Omar Johnson’s book How To Promote Market And Sell Your Kindle Book: Amazon Kindle Publishing Marketing and Promotion Guide   is a different take on marketing books. He covers a lot of valuable topics including foreign rights, translations and ramping up your book marketing.

 

Best Selling author, Nick Stephenson has a different take on marketing.  He focuses on building an unstoppable FAN list and blog.
