Me: BrunetteBabe 2016 Single female interested in finding
a good guy with small town values in a big city!
You: A contributor to help fund this book and inspire women all over the nation!
(Sound familiar?) Yes, that's me Antonia Kasper (aka Rachel Yardley --the main character of the book) met 50 men in 3 months through the internet over a cup of coffee!
I came to New York to pursue theatre but my priorities changed when I hit 38. Suddenly, I wanted a husband and if it wasn't too late...a baby! My biological clock was exploding but even more importantly, I wanted to find a life-time companion and "live happily ever after!" Was there such a thing?
This book isn't just a funny book about all my "bad dates" but is a tribute to help inspire women by overcoming their own obstacles in order to find a healthy, loving, and committed relationship!

The Impact you will make:
Did you know that the total number of single people in the U.S. is 54,250,000 (that's about 55 million people)
And the total number of people in the U.S. who have tried online dating is approximately 49,250,000 (that's about 50 million)
In other words, either you or someone you know has online dated.
This book also explores various subtopics: such as co-dependency/ positive thinking and creative visualization/body image/and the daughter-father relationship
The Subtopic of Daughter and Father Relationships
Ever wonder why single women or women in unfulfilling and even abusive relationships usually have abandonment or abusive issues with their father or male role model?
Studies have shown that well-fathered daughters are more likely to have relationships with men that are emotionally intimate and fulfilling whereas daughters of inadequate fathers tend to attract men like their fathers---unavailable or verbally/emotionally and sometimes even physically abusive. Not only do fathers have great impact on their daughters’ relationships with men, but they generally have more impact than mothers do. Research also shows that dads may shape their daughters’ mental health and relationships in adulthood.
Risks & Challenges:
There are always risks and challenges in any project. However, I do have the experience to follow through. It took Kasper three years to write this book in (you guessed it) a Starbucks. She spent one year developing the One Woman Show based on the book (only after she read excerpts from the book and people constantly urged her to develop her book into a show)---but she needs to get the book out already! She is determined as ever!
What if we don't raise the goal amount?---The money we do raise will be used to get the ball rolling! The hardest part is over. Completion of the book. Right now, its 115,000 words and Kasper really needs a good editor to chop it down to about 95,000 words. So, the first step is the editing. If anything that's where we will start. However, obtaining great photos/logo/artwork and manufacturing is our goal. A publicist is last on our agenda but is viable to help sell the book and get the word out!
Kasper is fully committed to having book in hand and for people to purchase by the 12/2017 possibly sooner! She will be sure to keep you posted on the progress along the way!
