Septuagenarian Julian Jessop is tired of hiding the deep loneliness he feels. So he begins THE AUTHENTICITY PROJECT – a small green notebook containing the truth about his life. Leaving the notebook on a table in his friendly neighbourhood cafe, Julian never expects Monica, the owner, to track him down after finding it. Or that she’ll be inspired to write down her own story. Little do they realize that such small acts of honesty hold the power to impact all those who discover the notebook and change their lives completely. THE AUTHENTICITY PROJECT is a story about being brave and putting your real self forward…and finding out that it’s not as scary as it seems. In fact, it looks a lot like happiness.
