May 23rd

Today is Margaret Wise Brown’s birthday. If she were still alive, she would be 105 years young.

Today, I picked up the mail and found my first publication on printed pages in writing for children.  HIGHLIGHTS HELLO with “Bouncy” is out! Yeah!

Today, I realized that I tend to overwrite--and get stuck in quick sand. Then, I drastically edit out almost everything to find the essence of the story, and after a long time, to see an insight, a turn, and all lifts. Still waiting for current manuscripts to lift. Hmm . . . this is a writer's life, I think.
