So, I get a story to where I think I'll just print it out to proofread, and instead I have edits in nearly every paragraph.
How can it look so different on paper than the computer screen? How come I can't see these edits on the screen?
Does anyone else encounter this?
When I wrote mostly shorts, it wasn't so much of a problem. Now, with a novel in the works, I'm seeing myself purchasing reams of paper. I'm currently printing two-pages per side, double sided, so I get four manuscript pages on one sheet; but still, it's going to use a lot of paper...
