Hi, everyone! I have just submitted "Life Is Not a Fairy Tale," by Fantasia
Barrino. It should be an easy validation for someone. The copyright name
is unusual, but it's corrected. I made a notation to that effect in the
Comments field, so hopefully, it will go through. <Smile> Here's the
synopsis... Enjoy!
"The more people say you can't, the more you can. The more they talk
negatively, the more you fight. You have to think about bettering your life
and go after it. I don't care what you got to do. You only have one life to
live, so do your thing."
With one moment, with one tearful, touching performance of "Summertime,"
Fantasia captured the hearts, and the votes, of millions of American Idol
fans. Her powerful voice and independent style made her an overnight
national sensation. But life wasn't always sensational for Fantasia.
Fantasia could have been just another sad statistic. At the age of
seventeen, despite the promise of her extraordinary voice, she was just
another young girl who dropped out of high school, a baby on her hip. Her
life and her plans for her future seemed to be going nowhere. The choices
she had made were closing every door to the life she had hoped to live.
But Fantasia had been raised by strong women of faith. Both her grandmother
and mother are preachers. She was raised with an unshakable faith in God,
the kind of faith that she needed when it came time to rethink her choices
and redirect her life. Fantasia hoped that by using her gift to inspire
others, she would be able to someday take care of her family and herself.
Now readers can share the intimate moments of her life. In Life Is Not a
Fairy Tale, Fantasia offers a deeply emotional look at her rise to the top
and the life-altering revelations she came to during her lowest moments
along the way. With a spirit as strong
as her voice, she speaks with heartfelt, humorous frankness about what it
takes to get off the wrong path and onto the right one. Fantasia confides in
readers, walking with them through the trials of her family life and loving
a man who didn't love her, through the challenge of being a baby mama to
managing the joys and pressures of fame. She turns all that she's learned
into uplifting life lessons, including:
. Recognize your gift
.You made your bed, now lie in it
. Give props where props are due
. Like mother, like daughter
. It ain't about the bling
Fantasia keeps it real with her sassy, self-confident style and
down-to-earth advice, making readers laugh and cry with her. Fantasia's
story will inspire readers to believe in themselves and have the faith it
takes to reach for their greatest potential.
FANTASIA began singing at the age of five. At nineteen, she became an
American idol winner. Her first album, Free Yourself, was released in
November 2004 and went platinum in January 2005. She lives in Charlotte,
N.C.
