Dad Storybooks

I was surrounded with love and support at the Los Angeles on Saturday, starting the moment my first guest walked in -- Andrea Campbell literally popped up from Cleveland! What a surprise. Then came a parade of Delta sorors, who never fail to support me, including my sands Sandra Evers Manly who has her own line of kids' books. At the next table over was my elementary school BFF Paula D Golden, we have been writing children's books since we were kids. And to top it off, my high school classmate Stephanie Allain came thru!

As it says in my "The Fathers Walk" storybook, "The walk started in Chicago and every year it grows and grows." Today I got to make a pilgrimage to the homey, book-filled office of the Black Star Project in Chicago, which originated the Million Father March concept. I got a warm welcome from director Gloria Smith, whose brother Philip Jackson was the iconic founder of the organization. She is doing a beautiful job of keeping this nonprofit alive, vibrant and community-centered.
