The Tracy Chapman/Alice Walker combo is so powerful to me because both of them are such huge role models for me. *fangrrls all over the place*

Alice Walker to publish personal diary in 2017

Alice Walker declared in the past (to the Guardian in 2006) that she was planning to publish her journals in which she tells about her relationship with Tracy Chapman "She has written about the relationship in her journals, which she plans to publish one day."

So we were more than happy to read that Alice Walker is set to publish excerpts from her personal diary in 2017!!  The book will be entitled Gathering Blossoms Under Fire and will be edited by Valerie Boyd. It will contains extracts from more than 65 notebooks written during more than 50 years. Those notebooks document her life’s journey from a sharecropper’s shack in rural Georgia to becoming a cultural icon. Of course it will mention her struggle, her life as w writer and her love relationships, including the one with folk singer Tracy Chapman!
