The first step of this section was to fill the glass to two-thirds full of water. Then take the pencil and circle it around both the inside and outside of the glass.

where the pencils are kept. Instead, Woolf goes to a stationery store run by an old couple, who seems to have misplaced the pencils. As shown by, “At last, exasperated by his incompetence, he pushed the swing door open and called out roughly: “Where d’you keep the pencils?” as if his wife had hidden them” (264).

How do you make your images to your books? I draw the images into my books myself. I usually start with only a pencil and draw the outlines on a paper. After the pencil work is done, I use black markers to make an overlayer on the drawing’s pencil parts. Sometimes I make the colours also with markers, but usually I move the drawing into a computer, and put the colors on the picture with some of the computer’s apps like picsart or pixlr express.
