Wow, Ari! After all these years when I sent you that note on Deviantart I'm finally going to have a story to read from you! Very exciting, congratulations!
Hey Ari and Rachel!! Congrats Ari! Wonderful job on completing your manuscript! Go Ari!! I am proud of you! I had another comment earlier but had issues posting it (UA-cam is auto deleting long comments, it seems). Nonetheless I agree with you both that one has to prioritize writing, make time for it, and cut out things that aren't a priority in order to get writing done. I learned that the hard way... I also agree with asking writers for help and being kind and courteous. That goes a long way and is key for life. I agree with what you both said about making notes about what you need to fix, edit, etc. That helps a lot :) Last but not least, it seems like you both print out your work. Do you have printers that you would recommend? Thank you very much 😊. Wonderful episode!
Thanks for listening Alex, and for your kind congratulations. I'm sorry to hear YT has been acting up. We've had issues like that before. *sigh* Glad you found this episode useful. Regarding the printer, I use an HP Desktop 1000 (had it for YEARS) and it gets battered. Now only does it print out my manuscripts (not every draft) but I use it for my business too - all my shipping labels, business cards etc. The ink is not too expensive and I print almost everything on fast print (draft style) so it saves on ink but still looks fine for reading (it's not that faint grey print). I've never needed anything more fancy or expensive (especially as a lot these days just aren't worth the money and aren't built to last). ~Ari
@@TheMerryWriterPodcast You're welcome! No problem. I think UA-cam does that to delete potential "spam", but it leads to issues, like with legit comments being deleted. Thanks so much for sharing your experience and thoughts with HP Desktop 1000! This is helpful :) I'm glad that it's useful and that the ink isn't too costly :). I will look into HP Desktop 1000! :) I agree. :) A lot of the fancy expensive stuff def isn't worth it. Thanks again for your comment and for sharing your thoughts. Have a nice evening! :) :).

Are you suggesting I actually let that manuscript see the light of day? *is shocked at the audacity* Let's hope so :) ~Ari
