I received this email from Hailey Rodgers. She is a Westport young woman who needs some support to launch a book she has written. Many of you in the Village know Hailey and her Father.

Please consider giving her a helping hand.

Subject: Hailey Rodgers Local Author from Westport Ontario

Hi there,

My name is Hailey Rodgers, I am 19 years old, and I am going into my third year of Commerce at Queen’s University. I personally wanted to share with you that for the past 7 months I’ve been working on a book.

New Degree Press, my book publisher, has officially approved my manuscript for publication. I’ll be launching my book in December 2019. I am so excited to be a local author.

My book is about authenticity and unconventionality in young adults. I wrote this book because I believe every human being is exceptional and I believe that as a young adult, it is the hardest time to believe that about yourself. I have discovered key principles throughout my journey as a young adult along with the incredible stories of others on how we can all embrace our inner weirdness and be inspired to live an authentic life.

Before I can launch my book, my publisher wants to see momentum through a pre-sale campaign. The pre-sale campaign will fund the costs to publish my book. I need to sell 100 copies of my book in the next 30 days.

I’d love for your business to support my campaign. By doing so you will receive various perks including recognition in the acknowledgements and more. Simply go to https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/see-me-by-hailey-rodgers#/ and you can pre-order a copy of my book there.

I could not have done this without the amazing support I have received thus far from the Westport community. This project has been an incredible passion of mine and I am so excited to get my message out there.

I thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Hailey Rodgers
