A former UW classmate of mine is in NYC looking to fulfill her wildest dreams (see post The Days of our (Young) Lives). Here is her story, help her out:

Here’s the deal: I recently submitted a men’s fashion book proposal that was met with mild interest from a New York publishing company. I need to convince them Emily Winter is a Good Idea. I need to push them over the edge. I need a damn contract. I need your help.

The idea is that if I prove that people are actually reading what I write, I’ll get the book deal. That’s why I’m soliciting all of you to make my hastily-named blog, fashionablementions.blogspot.com, part of your daily blog-reading routine (but, okay, I’m only updating it 3x/week right now).

So. Okay. Please, read, comment.

Thank you ladies and gents! I’ll keep you updated with the good or embarrassing news about this fantastic book that may or may not materialize.
