Speaker: Noah Stephens
Tell us about your project. What was the occasion and who contributed?
Noah Stephens: Hey there, I'm noah. I actually just recently got a gift from my dad through newly words, got the memory book. We got it for his 50th birthday because we want to do something really special. Um and it turned out great. I got a lot of contributions from friends and family, so it was really fun.
What do you like the most about Newlywords?
Noah Stephens: One of my favorite things about newly Words was because I was the one that organized, it was really easy to get that link to everybody. You know, if I just had their email or phone number or anything like that. So really allowed a lot of people to contribute. We actually ended up getting over 100 pages, which is really cool. Um, the other thing I really liked was that there were different ways that people could contribute, which really made it special because everyone could kind of do their own thing and reflect themselves. Um, you know, a lot of people just contributed pictures, which was really fun to see. Um, you know, short stories, long stories, It was, it was just really fun to see, you know, all those different things and um, it was just really special.
What did you think of the quality of the printed book (if you received one)?
Noah Stephens: When the book came in we were actually all really surprised with how high quality it was. Like we were expecting it to be good but it far exceeded our expectations. Um The book cover was really high quality you could tell it was durable built to last. Um And like the pictures and everything showed up exactly how it was online. There weren't like little pixels or anything like that same thing with the text. Um And we even got the slightly larger size of it and even that it was perfectly clear high quality um Really could have asked for more from the quality of the book.
Would you recommend Newlywords? Why?
Noah Stephens: Okay. I think I would 100% recommend newly words and so would my dad who got the gift, you know, and I think almost everybody that contributed would as well. Um just because it was so easy. But you know, even more than that, it's just a really special gift. Um it allowed a lot of stories to get put down in writing that might not otherwise have. So you know, they could last a really long time things that you know, even my dad from his childhood, he forgot now we actually have them down so we can remember it for a really long time. Um honestly it was probably one of the most special gifts I've ever been able to get them. Um I also really like that so many different people could contribute. Um you know, because it's hard to get gifts for people that you know, might live in different states or you know, you're really good friends a while ago. But you know, life happens. This is a really good way to kind of bridge that gap and show your appreciation and love for somebody. So I would 100% recommend it
