Get Britain Writing with Fancy Stationary! #NSW

Hi everyone, I am writing about writing again Today! 

As you may know, National Stationary Week is not far ahead of us and I am getting involved in the hope of encouraging Britain to get writing a lot more. I for one really do need to spend more time writing, so I have tried to implement this into my daily routine. Little steps!

I have started writing lists of all the things I need to do that Day - I love to tick them off my list! I have also been jotting down blog ideas a lot more throughout the Day - it has really helped.

Another thing that has encouraged me to get writing is this absolutely beautiful pen by Sheaffer. It has been a long time since I have got so excited about pens, but this one in particular is a pretty nifty one indeed, and I cant stop using it!  I definitely think if you have a nice pen or a cool notepad it could help encourage people to write more.

Get Britain Writing! #NSW

I have been sharing some posts in the past few Weeks talking about my thoughts on the importance of writing and my love of stationary. This is in celebration of National Stationary Week; a Week which encourages and promotes us to get writing by hand and all things stationary related. It is so important to continue writing by hand; something I am sure a lot of us are guilty of neglecting as the internet and computers are now a huge influence on our lives.

Today I am thinking of ways we can get Britain Writing - have you any suggestions?
Here are a few ideas I have come up with:

• Writing letters to distant relatives and old friends
• Sending postcards
• Writing a sentence every day on what has made you happy on a small piece of paper and store it in a jar 
• Writing a list of things you want to achieve this Year
• When you wake up, write about your dreams and look into what they mean

Can you think of anymore? Be sure to let me know and I will add your ideas to the list!

As it is nearing National Stationary Week, I thought I would share with you a pretty nifty piece of stationary. This is the Kokoyu Stapeless Staper! Instead of clipping your paper together with staples which are difficult to remove, this cool piece of stationary creates a special fold in the paper ensuring it is all kept together, with just one punch! 

Why is writing important to you?

Have you any suggestions on how to get Britain writing?

Why Writing Matters To Me #NSW

I have always really enjoyed writing. I still remember some of my first experiences in writing; from learning to form letters, and then learning to write sentences. It is something I have always really enjoyed to do from being a child - I would spend hours jotting down stories on large notepads, I had such a big imagination back then! 

Handwriting is still something I try to do as often as I can; sure, we all have computer devices now which make life a little easier sometimes, but there is nothing better than being able to sit and jot your thoughts down by hand. Since finishing my education a few Years ago, I have found handwriting to become less and less of a requirement in my life like it was when I was younger. I am trying my best to embrace the pen and paper and continue to take time out from the computers and write by hand!

It is pretty amazing when you think about the ability some of us have of being able to read and write - something we may take for granted in day to day life. I think handwriting is important and it really matters to me that it continues to be present in our lives - writing by hand shows our imagination, our individuality, and our personality. 

27th April sees the beginning of National Stationary Week; a Week which encourages and promotes us to get writing by hand and celebrates all things stationary related.  You can get involved by checking out the website, sending more letters, cards, and get writing!
