One of my favorite things of the Holiday Season is to create my own Christmas Wish List for Writers. It gives me a chance to browse glamorous stores I wouldn’t normally shop, to dream big, and to have some adult fun. This list is for the penny pincher who needs a good reason to spend those pennies. So here’s my top ten Fab Glam Christmas Wish List for Women Writers like me. And if you are privy to these kinds of dollars then sure I will take the gift.
*Note: I have no affiliate or ad relationship with these companies. I simple heart them right now.

5. Mont Blanc Virginia Woolf, The Writer’s Edition Pen, $749
Virginia Woolf is considered to be one of the first representatives of classical modernism. She developed the story-telling technique of the “interior monologue”, which she used most consistently in her novel “The Waves”, which appeared in 1931. Virginia Woolf shaped this avant-garde technique with an expressly feminine subjectivity and autobiographical elements to create milestones in feminist literature such as “Orlando” or “Mrs Dalloway.

9.Roma Lusaa Journal at Kate’s Paperie, $84
Italian leather journal. Marbelized edges. Made by hand in Florence, Italy. 175 pages of handcraft, hand sewn, luxury. This is the kind of journal that make you think twice about padding a novel with crap. Just beautiful.
10. The Vintage Book of American Women Writers, $18.95
The Vintage Book of American Women Writers is the first of its kind: a dazzling, monumental showcase of 350 years of poetry and fiction by American women.
If you’re a women writer, I suggest you learn your history. The gift of knowledge is priceless. Preorder it here. The book doesn’t release until January 2011.
And the SteamPunk Ring…
Steampunk Watch Movement Fully Adjustable Ring With Flower Bead And Swarovski Crystal (Steampunk Jewelry by Steam Designs), $50
I wouldn’t call this luxe, because of the price point. But it’s luxe because of the craftsmanship and fabulous because it just is. Steampunk is making a comeback in American lit communities. Thus, the reprise of intricate watches, rings, and just brain brilliance. I love it!! Get it here.
Hope you enjoyed these items. If you purchase any thing here, please let me know. I know i will be getting the Vintage Book of AAW and possible this ring for my Bday in February.
