Just finished a new PB manuscript. Revised once and needs much more work.  Still revising the chapter book and YA novel. Starting to revisit a middle grade novel that I have written, BASKETBALL BALLERINA.

Lily’s Lagniappe: LSU Tigers beat the snot out of Texas A&M last night on their home field.  Hoping Coach Orgeron will be the HC next year. The university should give him the chance to be the HC.

Read and re-read ideas book about picture book topics. I want to write a new manuscript and revised one I had already written. Continuing to revise YA novel and chapter book.

Lily’s Lagniappe: Today the LSU/Florida game was a disappointment. We didn’t play as well as we should have. The last game of the season is Texas A&M in College Station. Hopefully we will win.
