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




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