On the 18th I sent my manuscript to freelance editor for a critique. I look forward to learning so much about editing and my manuscript. I am still revising my middle grade and I also have two ideas for picture books.  I’m reading the Magic Treehouse series and trying to understand exactly what the right amount of exposition in a middle grade novel. I thought dialogue made it easier for kids but apparently editors want more exposition. So exposition it will be!!

Lily’s Lagniappe: LSU plays Western Kentucky this Saturday night in TIger Stadium. My sister and I are headed down to the game.
