Hi everybody!
It's Miki Turner.
I'm here today to talk about
the book I've been working on for the past year and a half.
It used to be called "Journey to the woman I will become",
now it's called
"Journey to the woman I've come to love".
And basically what it is, it's a photo coffee table book
as you can see some of the subjects here:
Mo'nique, Laurel Holloman and Halle Berry.
And they're talking about the first time they fell in love with themselves.
So it's one photo, one question.
And let's open up here
so you can see
for example Nikki Giovanni
the award winning poet and tenured professor at Virginia Tech University
It's Nikki's photo
and she says, she answers the question this way:
"I've always enjoyed me but I guess you can say
I really fell in love with myself when I realised I was smart".
So there are all types of responses in this book
and I about 2/3 of the way finished with it.
This is my friend Spoon from London,
her name is not really Spoon, it's Alyssa Gaffney Stadler
and she's a homemaker.
And then I have Tina Andrews,
this is a producer, writer, author, actress
and, my friend Cori Murray who is the entertainment director at Essence
and the great Linda Evans
who most of you remember from Dynasty but she and I go back to Big Valley
and she's also an actress.
So I hope you enjoy the website,
I've posted some of the photos they were going to use in the book
I still have about 15 more people to shoot
but there are gonna be from all awsome lives and I think you'll really enjoy it
and hopefully this will be out at a bookstore near you soon
hopefully before Christmas so keep your fingers crossed.
Thanks for visiting the site and
thanks for supporting "Journey to woman I've come to love".
