I do daily writs on 7 characters, and each character has extra gear in their bags after turning in for Clothing, Blacksmithing, Woodworking, Jewelcrafting and Enchanting that I then have to take the time to deconstruct. Is there a way to stop receiving these extra items? Thank you.

The extra intricate items you are seeing are from your daily writ rewards. Lazy Writ Crafter has the option to automatically open and accept the writ rewards and then has further options on how to handle them.
Are you using any / commands in chat before doing writs? There’s / commands that queue up additional items so you can craft in bulk since the writs are on a rotation. If they’re not crafted items, then they’re probably from the writ rewards themselves.

2. Press Esc, select Settings -> Addons -> JunkBuster
Expand Settings -> Looting - ensure Perform Destroy is ON
3. Expand "Add new rule" and enter:
a) Action -> Destroy
b) Item Trait -> Armor Intricate
c) Click Add Rule
4 & 5. Create two more rules:
one for Weapon Intricate
another one for Jewelry Intricate
i don't think you should delete glyphs and reagents using this approach, as the rules will work any time, not only during doing daily writs, but still - you can autodestroy whatever or receive or pick-up, just make a good rule for that.
(my thieves have a lot of rules to exterminate stolen garbage (like food ingredients, cloth gear, etc) on the fly, just decide what you want to get rid of, yes?)
6. ReloadUI or re-log.
Enjoy.
Also, note the rules are working all the time, so they shall destroy any intricates you obtain (like from mobs drops as well) !
So decide wisely.
edit: for intricates - you can dump them into a Guild Bank, but if your Officers are against that - you'd better Junk them instead of autodestruction and sell with one keypress at ant NPC vendor. profit!
another approach (if you have ESO+) - decon unnecessary garbage with decon Assistant

I didn't realize these were rewards from turning in writs. I mistakenly thought Lazy Writ Crafter was crafting extras.
Right now it is set to Nothing. I will set it to Deconstruct and hope that fixes my problem.
Thanks for the tips!

I just set them to Junk so they're automagically sold the moment I clicky on my merchant. Might as well get a few coin out of it even if I don't wish to bother listing on a trader.
Well I set Intricates to Deconstruct and it did mark them to deconstruct, but I still have to go from station to station for them to deconstruct so I'm not saving much time.
I don't have the Ragpicker because they don't refine and I would still have to go from station to station to refine, so not much point.
- Sell them in your guild store(s) if you have slots free. Last I checked, gear sells for 300-400g each on PCNA and Jewelry Intricates for ~1100g.
- Or, donate them to a guildie (or perhaps bulk-sell) who is leving up crafting. I do daily writs on 23 toons and am currently gifting all of them to a guildie leveling crafting on a bunch of alts to create their own Daily Writ Army. When this guildie is finished, I'll pick another beneficiary.
- Decon them! Intricate gear gives back more mats to funnel back into your daily writ crafting!
P.S. I don't buy a ton of crown store stuff, but I did buy the ragpicker and absolutely love it. I wouldn't complain if it also handled refining, but that's something I do infrequently in large batches. I decon stuff all the time and it's a joy to do it in one shot, from anywhere.

I had been holding out on getting the Ragpicker but maybe I should give it a shot. I'm mainly trying to cut down the time it takes to run around deconstructing these every day.
I do place these in a chest as I get them and then the last character to do the daily writs that day picks them up and deconstructs them all together, rather than taking each character around separately. But I'd rather not have to do it at all.
