Released today: The Book That (Almost) Got Me Fired -- and already #3 on Amazon's Hot New Releases

Image
  Released officially today:   The Book That (Almost) Got Me Fired  by Kelly James. And, already, it is #3 among Amazon's hot new releases in business and professional humor. Description: You're 52. Divorced. Single mom to a teenaged son and a tween daughter. Happily self-employed but worried about the cost of health insurance, the inevitable impact of perimenopause on your body, and whether you should keep dating a sexy plumber who's sweet and funny but lives an hour away and doesn't seem that into you. So, after 22 years of fulltime freelancing, you take a day job as a tiny, creaky cog in the corporate American machine where you're decades older than most of your coworkers - and you write about it. The Book That (Almost) Got Me Fired: A Year in Corporate America is an entertaining, midlife memoir that shares what (and what not) to do when you make that corporate leap.

  Learning to Feel was released today.  Understanding the complexities of human behavior and emotional response is no real help when it comes to experiencing feelings. In fact, having studied psychology and emotions as a career got in the way. In order to reconnect to his feelings-or what might be called the experience of the emotional experience-the author had to peel back layer upon layer to unlock the many places where his emotive process had been stuck.  Learning to Feel  may be one person's journey in emotional discovery, but it serves as a set of trail blazes through the dark forest of discovery for others to follow.
