A Father's Day Gift Made From Your Texts
Print your texts with your dad as a book. The one-word replies, the weather reports and the links he sent are set in order with his name beside each one.
What do you get a dad who says he does not want anything for Father's Day?
Print your text conversation with him as a book. He did not ask for it, and half of it is his own writing. Every message is set in order with each name beside it.
My dad sends very short texts, so will the book look empty?
No, the book is as long as the conversation is. Each message is set in order with the name beside it, whatever its length. You look through every page before anything prints, so you see how it reads first.
Can I print only the texts from one stretch, like a season or a trip we took?
Yes, you can make the book from a stretch of dates. Pick the first and last day when you make it. The title can say what the stretch was.
What if my dad uses a different kind of phone than I do?
That is fine, because you make the book from your side of the conversation. We email the steps for your app. If you get stuck, contact us and a person answers. Tech support is free.
Will he know I am making it?
No, we never contact anyone else in the conversation. Only one person needs to make the book. The parcel has no prices on the slip, so it can go straight to him.
How far ahead of Father's Day should I start?
Start three weeks ahead. A printed book arrives about two weeks after you approve it, and no delivery date is promised. For a gift that has to be there on the day, the digital edition or a gift card arrives the same day.
How much is it?
The paperback is $49 and the hardcover is $89, with free US shipping. The digital edition by itself is $19.

If You Want It As A Book
He may not say much when he opens it. Going by the conversation, that would be in character. Or start with the free receipt.
