Jacki-O's MS leg of her "Grown & Gangsta" book tour: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

Thank you to everyone who made the beginning of Jacki-O's "Grown & Gangsta" Book Tour a resounding success. When we began the journey on Tuesday, March 4, 2008---after just 10 days of promotion---we had no idea what to expect. To our surprise and excitement, hundreds of her fans and even some interested parties came out to support her visit to Mississippi---and this online photo album tells the story. http://www.esnips.com/web/Jacki-OBookTour
