Binding and Colors

An idea occurred to me when I saw this screen. As you know, it is very easy to use up printer toner (which is not cheap) when editing your manuscript. My idea was to upload the draft and convert it into a coil-bound book.

In the past, I’ve used report covers with metal prongs to hold my manuscript together while I’m editing it. The downside to that is the wear and tear on the prongs, which can rip into your pages.

If you’re not in a hurry, you can choose Lulu’s cheapest shipping option and wait a couple of weeks. I’ll have to look into Kinko’s price first. If that’s turns out to be cheaper, I’ll go with them.
