The Write Stuff

9/11/2012

Being surrounded by books all day, I can't help but be inspired by them. I've wanted to be a writer since I was a young boy growing up in the Philippines. I often got in trouble because I would scribble on the pages of the Little Golden Books my grandmother bought me. I like to think that was just my subconscious trying to tell me what I should do with my life.

If you've caught the writing bug yourself, we definitely have fun stuff you need- and don't need! We have your traditional journals to scribble down your ideas in- as well as a handful of Ex Libris Anonymous' wonderful hand-made vintage ones. My favorites though are the mini-book and pencil sets that dispenses from a vending machine! Not very practical but they're quite interesting.

I'm a bit jealous of the Bookmaking Around the World classes for the kiddies (grades K to 2) starting up later this month. Fortunately, we have great titles for adults interested in creating their own books- "How to Make Books" and "Magic Books and Paper Toys" both by Esther K. Smith, just to name a few.

If you're looking for a great book to give to the aspiring writer in your life (or even for yourself), consider "Rocket Writes a Story" by Tad Hills. I think it's perfect for anyone regardless of how old they are.

I'm sure you'll find just the "write" stuff on your next visit here to get your creative juices flowing!

Happy Reading (and Happy Writing!),
Earl
