I’m about to start a novel, my first one (hey we all gotta start somewhere!). This weekend I’m going to take a trip to OfficeMax to stock up on supplies. Thing is, I’m unsure of what supplies I need. So would someone be so kind as to take me back to my childhood days of school shopping lists and provide me with a list of what all supplies I should have handy? My budget is forty dollars.
Thank you all for your awesome advice!

No, I am not going to write my entire book by hand. That’s insane! But I do all my outlining/plotting by hand and I do my first draft by hand to keep me from editing too much (I’ve written short stories and poems).

Remember the name of a funny book (early 2000’s?) written entirely in e-mails between co-workers in an office?

One story line was about an interoffice affair, one was about someone that was overly concerned about the office supply cabinet and some how some of these e-mails got passed on to one of the companies international offices? It was really really funny and I want to read it again, but cannot remember the name!
