Angela Fling has been writing since her early twenties, when she bravely took on the role of “the person who makes the company newsletter sound interesting.” From there, she graduated to LinkedIn posts, where she occasionally went viral among at least three coworkers. Angela spent years public speaking and thereby creating PowerPoint presentations for trade associations because nothing says “creative spirit” like choosing between Fade In and Wipe Left transitions. When she’s not writing, Angela can be found trailing after her children like a loyal golden retriever, chauffeuring them to school functions, and laughing at her own jokes with zero shame. In fact, she laughed so hard while writing a certain section of this book that her husband looked over with the expression of a man wondering whether he should call someone. As her kids began to leave the nest, some people adopt pets, but Angela adopted a new hobby: writing a book. It turns out storytelling sheds less, costs nothing to feed, and only occasionally chews up her free time. This book is her leap into the next chapter, proof that reinvention can be hilarious, heartfelt, and just a little bit chaotic, somewhat like her life.
