My California: Journeys by Great Writersis a collaboration between Angel City Press and CaliforniaAuthors.com. All publishing proceeds benefit the California Arts Council, an agency which was forced to suspend school writing, arts education programs and other grants in 2003 because of state budget cutbacks. Since its publication, more than $100,000 from sale of this book has been donated to literary programs in California schools. To make theproject possible, all of the writers donated their work. Malloy Incorporated generously donated the first printing of the book. The CaliforniaAuthors.com editor and creative director and the team at Angel City Press--including the sales manager and representatives who work with Angel City Press--are also contributing their services and talents.
