The Leimert Park Book Fair



This is me at the Leimert Park Book Fair this past summer, I know this vid is a little dated, but it's still very nice. I was out there working the crowd with my Mom, My Mother is my biggest supporter ;-)

I really love doing book signings and reading to children. I have read for thousands of children throughout the Los Angeles area. If you would like me to come your school and read send me an email and lets make it happen.

that's nice. I want to write a children's book, but it just seems difficult for me. I haven't even been writing anything except the blog lately. shame.

But keep doing it™ and I wish you the most success at what you do.

Hi! Your pages are beautiful! And your books look like they'd be fun to read. Thanks for dropping by my place. What are you writing now? (besides the blog).

It's nice to meet you. I'm impressed. You're out there doing it, and writing for kids couldn't be a more worthy life love.
