1. A storage device for writing or drawing implements, the device comprising:a holder adapted to receive writing or drawing implements, the holder being elongate and having a longitudinal axis, wherein the holder is formed as a pair of half-shell pieces, a media roll wrapped around the holder about said longitudinal axis, a guide positioned adjacent to the media roll and against which the media can bear, and a base attached to the holder, wherein: rotation of the base about said longitudinal axis effects rotation of the holder and dispensation or retraction of media past the guide from or to the media roll.2. The storage device of claim 1 wherein the guide is mounted to the storage device in such a manner that it can be held manually to prevent rotation of the guide when the base is rotated.3. The storage device of claim 1 including a cap attached to the holder.4. The storage device of claim 3 wherein the cap includes thread by which it is engaged with corresponding thread on the holder.5. The storage device of claim 3 wherein the cap includes an opening through which the writing or drawing implements can be removed.6. The storage device of claim 1 wherein there is located between the base and the media roll a ring providing smooth surfaces against which an edge of the media roll can bear.7. The storage device of claim 6 wherein a ring is provided between the cap and the media roll.8. The storage device of claim 7 wherein the rings each include a tab to which the guide is attached.9. The storage device of claim 8 wherein there is a pair of guides and each ring has a pair of diametrically opposed tabs so as to support said guides in mutually diametrically opposed positions.10. A storage device for writing or drawing implements, the device comprising:a holder adapted to receive writing or drawing implements, the holder being elongate and having a longitudinal axis, a media roll wrapped around the holder about said longitudinal axis, a guide positioned adjacent to the media roll and against which the media can bear, and a base attached to the holder, wherein a sharpening device is located within the base, and wherein: rotation of the base about said longitudinal axis effects rotation of the holder and dispensation or retraction of media past the guide from or to the media roll. 11. The storage device of claim 10 wherein the sharpening device includes a number of blades which are fixed with respect to the base and an opening through which the writing or drawing implement can be inserted for presentation to the blades, such that upon rotation of the drawing or writing implement with respect to the base, the writing or drawing implement is sharpened by the blades.12.
