Abstract: The marking device holder may comprise a body, an instrument holder, and a plurality of touch points. The marking device holder may be operable to move a writing instrument over a writing surface in a straight line. The writing instrument may detachably couple to the instrument holder such that the writing instrument contacts the writing surface. The plurality of touch points may form a stable base for the body that may resist tipping and may reduce friction during forward motion of the body. As non-limiting examples, the writing instrument may be a pen, a pencil, a mechanical pencil, a marker, or a stylus. As non-limiting examples, the writing surface may be paper or a device screen.
