Well, Happy New Year!! I wish all writers and illustrators a fruitful and productive year and success in all that you endeavor to achieve.

I am brushing up on reading and revising some old manuscripts that I hope to submit in 2018. One of my goals is to have some more of my poetry published as well. I do have two publications coming up, though. One is a story for POCKETS magazine and the other one is an essay for a book anthology.

School visits and presentations are also forthcoming so I’m busy setting up a schedule. In the meantime, I took time out to attend the musical play of CINDERELLA at our beautiful Majestic Theater. It was an awesome night.

By the way, my granddaughter made this wooden plaque as a Christmas gift. I love it and put it up on my wall next to my PC. I look at it every day for inspiration.

Until next time …. Keep writing!
