In my words: Chalking it up is a satire
of Corporate America and the tale of Heather Hall, a zany and sassy
suburban mom and corporate slacker. This book was born out of my writer's
keen observational powers and witty, irreverent sense of humor.
On the back of the book it says: "Meet
Heather Hall: a corporate rebel who finally meets her demise after
committing infractions such as stealing bottled water from the company
caterer, going to the movies during the workday with her best friend, and
defying the company's open-toed shoe policy. The spunky Heather Hall
sashays her way through unemployment -- and into several different job
disasters -- until she finally finds what she was meant to do all along.
From the unorganized chaos of a downsizing software company, to
stay-at-home mommyville, Heather experiences it all in one very puzzling,
bizarre year. Chalk it up to a bad attitude mixed with a crappy economy
and a restless spirit!"
Now, let it be known that no small
children or animals were harmed in the making of this story. Loosen up
people, it's fiction. If you think it's about you... it's probably not.
Or it might be.
