E (em166) Yes the title is correct. So I get printing credits for school, usually wayyyy too much to use during the semester (and they transfer over to spring semester too).

So I printed a copy of Silver Eyes. All 156 pages. Look at it! I know everyone here would appreciate seeing it :D.

I'm hoping to use it to do some heavy editing. It only cost $7.40 to print which barely cut into my printing credits.

First, that is awesome!

And second...they charge you to print things at school??

Yep, .05/page. Gotta love American colleges.

Michael Valdez (teekomeeko) | 18 comments It's an endorphin rush to see a stack of paper with your own creativity on it, isn't it?

Related: it was incredibly useful doing edits on paper for my second draft. That red pen I used to cover up my embarrassments still let me see the old work in case I wanted to re-use it elsewhere. It's highly underrated to work physically rather than digitally.

Paul Robinson (robo3687) | 93 comments before I started writing Ghosts I had this done as a motivator:



It's completely empty and has my old titleless cover, but I can put it on my shelf and hold it.

I'm going to do a hardcover one when I finish my first draft.

E (em166) Oooooo pretty Paul!

Michael, I haven't found time to do a heavy edit T_T. School work has been pretty time consuming (*grumbles about stupid history of science class*) (Yes it's interesting, but the prof makes us read like 10 pages and write notes *grumble*)
