(He's an even better writer than I am) We took it to Staples and had it bound. He is mortified when I pull it out now but I keep telling him someday it will be a collector item!Jennifer Williams-Fields https://www.blogger.com/profile/07955385618601546524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5171670007828382529.post-12632477025447185002016-08-05T15:29:41.486-05:002016-08-05T15:29:41.486-05:00Congrats on your story acceptance and on finishing...Congrats on your story acceptance and on finishing your draft!

We are kindred souls - I was also a first grade author, same ruled paper, but nothing as impressive as 120 pages - although I also did illustrations. I had a flying wooden horse that was somewhat dragon-esque. Just a word of warning - Highlights Magazine won't print your stuff - not realistic enough.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5171670007828382529.post-24656535933904956132016-08-03T12:47:17.315-05:002016-08-03T12:47:17.315-05:00Dang, 120 pages in first grade!
