Five Writing Themed Bags

If there was one thing other than books that I love, its bags. It’s more of an obsession really. One of the things I struggle with (despite the fact that my laptop is quite small and thin,) is finding a bag that’s big enough to carry everything I need (I do tend to carry the kitchen sink too.) I’ve hunted through the internet and picked out some writer themed bags that I thought were great and most importantly, practical for all the writing stuff you may need to carry around. Which one is your favourite?

Last Term at Malory Towers Bag – £44.00

Mini Book Handbag by the Literary Gift Company.

Love this, love this, love this. It’s from their books turned into handbags range and I love them. This one is the cover of Last Term at Malory Towers by Enid Blyton. I remember reading this as a child and loving these stories. This is a little different to your normal bag but a great idea (and big enough for a notebook.) They have other covers in the range and prices are between £28 and £60.

Penguin Book Bag

Penguin Book Bag from Little Bookish Gifts.

This design is instantly recognisable (to me anyway.) This particular bag is one of Penguin’s iconic orange covers and features The Great Gatsby. I love it. It’s available for £12.95.

Go Away I’m Writing Bag

Go Away, I’m Writing Tote from CafePress.

This canvas tote bag is currently £9.50 from Cafepress. It’s machine washable and big enough to carry the laptop. It would make a good gift for the writer in your life or a treat for yourself. I have one similar to this and its great.

I Write Messenger Bag

I Write Messenger Bag from Etsy.

Currently £17.61, this bag is handmade cotton canvas and is made to order. It’s perfect for the notebook, laptop and iPad. I like the brass turn buckles on the front and the nice, wide strap too. I have to confess, I do like cross body bags. I find them the easiest bag to carry around so this would be on my wish list.

Writer Urban Messenger Bag

Urban Writer Messenger Bag from CafePress.

Another one from CafePress, this is the urban writer messenger bag. It’s currently £22.50. This is a lovely bag with an adjustable strap and writer written on the front. Again, it’s cross body. It’s nice and simple. It has a magnetic snap and also has exterior and interior pockets too.

I'm Laura. I started Novel Kicks back in 2009 as I wanted a place to discuss books and writing - two loves of my life. As someone who has anxiety, these two things give me, and I am sure countless others, a much needed escape.
There is a monthly book club, writing exercises, prompts, reviews, author interviews, competitions and guest posts. I cover many genres and I hope there is something for everyone.
I grew up by the sea in Dorset and currently live in Poole with my husband, Chris and three cats. I love writing and have a BA (Hons) in Creative Writing from Falmouth University. I am writing my first book. If only I could stop pressing delete. Chris has threatened to stop it from working. Haha.
I have always loved creative writing since I was in first school and would very much like to meet my teacher, Miss Sayers, to say thank you for all the encouragement she gave me then.
When not writing, I love reading, cats, Disney, singing (I can't sing but this doesn't stop me,) and falling into a good TV show or film. If I could step into any fictional world, it would be amongst the characters in ABC's Once Upon a Time.
I love reading many genres and discovering new authors.
