So, in the mean time.. I decided to publish my Children's short stories... which are also FAMILY STORIES.  
They're just PURE FUN even after all these years. 
Do you still remember how to laugh??

Oh, in keeping with the JAZZ TRADITION,
the stories are "improvised"  
Or "extemporaneous" in the Lit World.
OH,  my audience? 
My Grandchildren!
They were a rough bunch, too!! So If I could make them laugh, y'all aught to be pushovers.
