    I'm sure I've read or heard something about these before... Maybe:o:rotfl:

    Edit: oops old news:)
    thanks for these suggestions as well...
    :rotfl: my dad used to read us stories he made up and he put them onto a cassette. We had Ferdinand the fox and his friend Marvin the mole:)
    I like Marvin the mole... I imagine him to wear glasses for some reason....:D

    I've had the copies of about 6 stories for years and years - i dont think mum knows i have them. I want to do 5 copies (for each family member)... i hope i do albert worm justice though :o

    I have a totally random question if anyone can point me in the right direction.

    My mum used to make up and read us stories when we were younger. I have few sheets of A4 paper with them on - but is there a way i can get it turned into a book (purely for the family, not to sell). Is it called self publishing or something? I only want 5 copies, I would type it and could use clip art drawing for the characters etc. Anyone done this before??

    I haven't used them but they were recommended by a writing forum I'm on.

    Blurb was also mentioned...

    i would be really interested to know how much this costs, i wrote a few childrens books that were going to be published but the company went bankrupt and i would love to get copies done for my grandchildren, mine was Kevin the Kiln Dragon, a vegatarian baby dragon from snowdon who run away from his family and ending up living in Porthmadog Pottery and firing the kilns,:D

    Lots of glade/Febreeze reduced in my @ but no really good comparisons sadly

    So, there are comparisons but not any really good ones? Lol:rotfl:, love it when we are already getting things at the price they've 'reduced' it to and it's still no good for us as we don't get enough further deduction back in addition:rotfl::rotfl:.
