Single & Happy: The Party of Ones is a manifesto and online dating memoir meant to inspire those who might be considered Single at Heart to celebrate themselves before they try to jump into a relationship. For years, unmarried black women have been targeted for judgment and scrutiny by Steve Harvey, the New York Times and dozens of media outlets suggesting that the number of unmarried black women must mean there is something wrong with us. Since there was such a vested interest in her marital status, J. Victoria Sanders tried to follow some of the advice offered in Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man, The Rules and He's Just Not That Into You. For two years, she tried online dating only to strike out again and again before finally realizing that she should stop subjecting herself to World of Warcraft addicts and learn how to love and celebrate herself first.
Single & Happy is an exploration of what it means to be alone and content and the usefulness of solitude and friendship for the modern single woman. It's a necessary balance to the unnatural focus media outlets have focused on single black women as symbols of the undesirability and perils of female success and achievement.
