Louisiana in (French) words

Cheré Coen of the Lafayette Daily Advertiser wrote today about the launch party for Louisiana in Words, which was held Mar. 18 at the Maple Leaf Bar in New Orleans:

Erlene Stewart of Lafayette, one of the many writers of Louisiana in Words, Pelican Publishing's collection of "one-minute" nonfiction entries that complete a day in Louisiana, attended the book release party March 18 at the Maple Leaf Bar in New Orleans. The place was packed, Stewart said, and there were live music and refreshments.

"Mais, chèr, everyone passed a good time," she said. "I signed so many books, my fingers cramped and my signature became almost illegible."
