A few years ago, the director of a musical I was performing in thoroughly enjoyed hearing all of my behind-the-scenes stories from my 30+ year pageant history and she suggested that I write a book. This is that book including a pictorial time capsule of my journey (both good and bad). Confessions of an Aging Beauty Queen is an entertaining look into the behind the scenes action of the beauty pageant world. In addition, the book includes invaluable tricks of the trade, interview skills and most importantly, what it takes to win that crown, as well offering insight into the responsibilities of a title holder AFTER the crown is placed on their head.
I wrote the book in a comic and casual style to make this a fun read for anyone, regardless of their pageant status. The training guide is a MUST have for any contestant (of any age), full of empowering messages to guide you in your personal journey.
My hope is that my quirky personality comes across in my writing to inspire and teach you. I intentionally wrote this book in a style similar to two friends chatting it up over a cup of coffee, because let's face it . . . coffee talk RULES!
I wish you the best in your quest for the crown.

Monica offers a comedic perspective on her amazing journey as a pageant queen. This is a must read for those who want to compete in pageants--regardless of age. Who better to have as a coach than someone who has already found success winning 4 crowns and pageant titles? Everyone who competes in a pageant should add this to their library to help them In the LimeLight (podcast with Clarissa Burt).

As the former Director of Pageant Affairs for the Miss Universe Organization, I've hosted more than 1,500 Pageant telecasts and/or specials over the past 40 years. I've seen the positive influence pageantry has brought to millions of women across the globe. My stages have graced over 100,000 contestants including Halle Berry, Vanna White, and Monica Skylling. I am excited to see that Monica has written an excellent book. I would encourage anyone to read her book and learn from her experiences which is the best way to approach pageantry and succeed.

I admire the courage of women to put themselves out there at any age and believe there should be no age limit placed on beauty queens. Monica's journey was more about her own empowerment and the sisterhood of other women even though they were competing against each other and less about winning a beauty competition. In essence, the competition was really about finding and loving herself.
