What is "reality"? Tawnya Cooke reveals the real story behind the scenes of the controversial FOX reality show; The Swan. Utilizing the day to day journal she compiled in the many months of filming while she was a contestant on the The Swan, you will follow the day to day "routine" she encountered, along with the often times exciting world of reality TV! When 40 year old financial industry Compliance Officer Tawnya Cooke was chosen out of 250,000 women nationwide to be a "Swan" on the FOX Reality Show, THE SWAN, little did she know how very UNreal reality TV was. This book is her day to day journal and process from so called ugly duckling to becoming a beautiful "Swan". Throughout the often times surreal process she kept both her dignity and sense of humor. Tawnya was up against plastic surgeons who wanted to flex their Frankenstein muscles on her face and body, as well as executive producers of the show, who had no boundaries set up for these potential Reality stars. However, she stood her ground and in the end did things her way. This is Tawnya's widely anticipated memoir regarding a reality star's rise and fall and rise again, and the men and women who after five years still are an intricate part of her life!
