Our Stimulus Package Book - In the News....

Ernest Hooper reported in the St. Pete Times....Kirsten Becker and Julia Silva make the transition from business women to authors with Our Stimulus Package, a real-life romp about dating and dealing with the economic downturn.

Read What Carl Cronan wrote in the Daily Business Review about "Our Stimulus Package" - Who's who in the saucy Tampa "Stimulus" book?

By Patrick Manteiga, La Gaceta In Print: Friday, May 28, 2010  
Julia Rettig is known as a top performer in Tampa Bay's commercial real estate market. She also likes to dabble in politics. She has supported many candidates and commentated on the subject for local TV. The poor economy left her and many in her business with shrinking opportunities. This caused a shift from shopping at Macy's to Target.
Ms. Rettig and her friend Kirsten Becker have decided to launch a new career as authors. Their book, "Our Stimulus Package" will be available in June. It's billed as a "sexually charming collection of side-splitting dating stories from all over the country" that were voluntarily shared by Julia and Kirsten's close friends. They hope the book gives readers a humorous break from this miserable economic climate. The book can be ordered for $14.95 at www.ourstimuluspackage.com

Our Stimulus Package is an incredible, funny, heartfelt anthology of bad dates, ironic and humorous stories as told to us by their various friends.  We took our job losses in this miserable economic climate and turned it into our own "stimulus package" by becoming authors. We assembled this entertaining, warm, funny book about their lives, loves and family, and combined it with a series of off-the-wall, racy, provocative dating stories to create one heck of a "stimulating" book.
