The first part of my book, The Ugly Girl's Guide to Becoming a Model, can now be read online for FREE here!
I hope that my little book will inspire and practically assist girls all over the world who were rejected by model agencies to make a career of modelling on their own terms, as I have! It's the best job in the world! <3
