The Castle of Doom

3. Story (copy edited)
Finn was excited because he
was going on a school trip
(very large and obvious full
stop).

4. Everybody went inside.
Finn said (insert quotation
marks) I’m going to check if
the door is locked (end
quotation marks).
So then he ran to the …

5. … door. He tried to open the
door but it was locked.
Finn’s friend Charlie put his
hand up.

6. … and waited and waited to
be asked.
When he was asked, “Can I
go and rescue Finn? (yay! He
remembered the question
mark!), he said.

7. So off he went and he saw a
knob, and rampaged to it, and
turned it and turned it and
found him. (I feel there should
be an exclamation mark here.
I’ve also added some commas
to improve the flow).

8. Back cover blurb
Finn got locked in.
