Athena Cervantes wants to be a writer - a real writer - and that means only one thing to her - she wants to be a great American novelist! Of course this ambition requires an MFA from a prestigious writing program. Check! And she has to read all the right books. Check, again! And, most importantly, Athena must write the truth about what she knows. The only problem is, not a single thing she thinks she knows is true. America's Most Eligible is a hilarious romp about an ambitious young woman who has come of age in the pretentious world of Southern California. With great humor, Corie Skolnick satirizes the bad tweed set of literary academia along with the self-important characters of Hollywood, journalism, self-help Psychology, politics, and especially traditional commercial publishing even as the latter languishes in the throes of death at its own hands.
