Danny the Dragon &  Ladybug Known as Lil are semifinalists

Danny the Dragon and The Ladybug Known as Lil are both semifinalists in the Children’s Picture Book category, for the Florida Writer’s 2019 Royal Palm Literary Awards competition!

The winners will be announced at the Florida Writers Association’s awards banquet Saturday, October 19.

Danny is following the same track in the contest in which Mouse in the Manger was a finalist, and Tommie Turtle’s Secret won Best Children’s and Book of the Year.  We are rooting for Danny to go all the way.

The Ladybug Known as Lil was entered as a Children’s Picture Book in the unpublished category, so there are no illustrations.  

We are very affirmed to have two books in the running, and would be delighted if one or both become finalists, and a winner.

If Ladybug advances to finalist, or wins, that might be enough to get the interest of a publisher and we could get another book out to the children.
