Text Mentor: Text: I got my beginning idea from the "Mysteries of Harris Burdick" pictures Ms. Sraff showed us in class. This is the picture I used.
Audience: 4th-5th graders.
Writing process: My first draft was very short so then in my drafts afetr that i added on a lot more conflict. I also had trouble with my ending because by then i was really tired of writing that i just finished it really quickly. I think i did a good job of going back and fixing it. I did a lot on the computer. It helped because it kept it neat with each new draft.
Publishing Process: I used Paint and made a picture for every page. I also made a cover and bound it with a plastic sheet.

I am so impressed by your final published and illustrated copy of your story! What effect do you think the illustrations have on the telling of the story? You mention how your drafts grew and the length of your story grew. You also mentioned that the ending was rushed and forced at first, before you went back and changed it. What did you change about it and why are you happy about that change?
