She did an investigative series on the squeezing of the middle class and then started feeling squeezed herself, when during the recession she lost her full-time writing job and had to cobble together several part-time jobs.\r\n\r\nAs a writer, she started writing down several fictional, humorous anecdotes about what it\u2019s like to live as one of the 99%, (those of us who work for a living)\u2026 never imagining that someday they would be woven together in her first novel.\r\n\r\nShe gathered these fictional anecdotes while she was writing her first book, a non-fiction biography. Once that was published, she was inspired to string these anecdotes together into this novel, Diary of a 99%-er: The Struggle Between Survival and Creative Expression, which details a year in the lives of a fictional couple living in Orange County, trying to make ends meet during the recession.","link":"https:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/?author=15","slug":"d99","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/94fafa3babde2833b01fd266dc0ff0cec6c5a86a9af7b006f9e9cb3ef2277df0?s=24&r=x","48":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/94fafa3babde2833b01fd266dc0ff0cec6c5a86a9af7b006f9e9cb3ef2277df0?s=48&r=x","96":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/94fafa3babde2833b01fd266dc0ff0cec6c5a86a9af7b006f9e9cb3ef2277df0?s=96&r=x"},"meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/15","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
