5 Must-Have Accessories For Romance Writers

As a romance writer, having all of the small novelty items that come with the industry makes it feel more like a real job when lounging on the couch pinning a novel while watching your kids play on the floor. Or maybe you are the type of writer with a bathtub desk, and you enjoy writing in a nice bubble bath. So many of the great writers of old wrote utterly nude, so no one could fault you for any of these habits. Regardless, there are five must-have accessories for romance writers that work perfectly for gifts or just treating yourself.

1. Romance Idea Cards For Writers Block

Every author needs a little spark to launch an idea for their next scene or book from time to time. This is especially true for romance authors.

Imagine this just sitting on your desk, and when you are stumped about what your hero and heroine should talk about at the latest ball or in bed, whip one of these out to get the conversation flowing!

2. Sweet Motivation Reminders For Romance Writers

After receiving a one-star review on Amazon, you need motivation. You need a little pick me up to remind yourself why you are a writer. It really is something deeply ingrained inside you that longs to pour out onto the pages of a book. You simply overflow! So, get a writer’s momentum that can stay with you on your keys and remind you that you are enough each day, and you should be a writer. Even on the one-star review days!

3. A Writers Warning Lable

Every writer should come with a warning label for those around them! One of the best parts about being a writer is weaving in personal tales here and there that become almost unrecognizable to others on the page! So, grab this mug with a warning label for the sake of all of those around you.

4. A Reminder Of Your Why

Let’s face it, unless you are one of the lofty best-selling writers, you probably aren’t made of money yet. Furthermore, you probably didn’t get into the field of writing to become ultra-wealthy. You followed your passion. But when the bills pile up every now and then, and you’re up to your knees in dishes because you were writing a steamy scene, you need a reminder about seizing the day. You need to remember to forget the past and make the most of each day doing what you truly love. The Ralph Emerson Print is just the reminder you need hanging beside your desk.

5. A Practical Writing Tool

Grammarly is a practical writing tool every romance writer should have if they want to succeed. Hiring a proofreader is expensive, so is hiring a copy editor. Suppose you skip out on the proofreader for your book and work through the polishing touches yourself. In that case, you should invest in Grammarly. You can pay a subscription fee monthly or annually, and it is still cheaper than a novel proofreader will cost you. This is an excellent option for new writers who have just started a business. It is perfect if you are trying to get a feel for the market or develop your writing style.
