Rediscovering Your True Passion with Antonia Gavrihel

857 - Antonia was born into a show business family.  Her father was a comedian and actor and her mother was a big band singer.  She was surrounded by the entertainment business all her life.  Growing up, she would quietly sit and do her homework while her mother would cut an album or tape a variety show or her father would film a scene on a movie set.  Her older brother is an executive in the radio industry and when she was a kid would sit her in front of microphones from the time she was tall enough to reach them.   Back To One came into being when her son was two years old.  After work, after settling her son to sleep, Antonia would sit at her brand new (1994) computer and create the story of a woman, not unlike herself, whose life and adventures she could only wish to have.  It took about a year to write and fine-tune and then came the real work of selling the manuscript to a major publishing company.    The summer of covid, Antonia retrieved the manuscript at her son’s beckoning and updated the 1995 story to 2005.   Passion for writing reignited, she continued Cate and Kyle’s journey in a second manuscript.   It is a truth that everything comes to you in its own time.  You just have to be persistent and never give up.  So when Antonia least expected it, a serendipitous meeting would change her life.  And the rest, as they say, is history.
