Adapt Or Wait Tables

Inability to adapt is the new illiteracy and freelancing is becoming America's new normal. What 2008 taught America was not just that derivatives are dangerous and the housing market doesn't rise forever. It also taught us that survival requires juggling and pivoting, two skills that any freelancer is forced to acquire if they want to keep paying their rent. Adapt or Die is a mix of information, tricks and advice for all the freelancers out there, and the ones who will be stepping onto that playing field as they graduate from college. Written by a freelance writer who has spent the past two decades covering Hollywood and the world of pop culture and fashion, their tips for survival are laced with gossip and references to the famous as well as what they call the "secret celebrities" whose paths they have crossed. Consider this an entertaining how-to manual for anyone with ambition and no road map.

A sharp witty and acute novel that exposes celebrity and image-obsessed Hollywood Carol Wolper writes in 'coolly conversational staccato prose that reads like a collaboration between Jackie Collins and Mickey Spillane' Publishers Weekly After a decade in the business, Christine Chase is a freshly-divorced thirty-five year old filmmaker suffering from a major life slump. So the big question for her is: How do you jump-start a life afflicted by the double whammy of personal and professional ambivalence? Deliverance comes in the form of a subject for a film: Richard Gault, famously elusive, mythically cool actor and musician who went underground in the seventies rather than sell-out. Christine is inspired to find him and to document her quest on film, so like a Hunter S. Thompson in Gucci stilettos, she sets off. Along the way, she gathers around her a hip and motley crew and learns a great deal about life, love and the price of fame. Hilariously acute and right on the money, Secret Celebrity is the perfect sharp-eyed novel for our celebrity-obsessed times.

Cosmopolitan Culture and Consumerism in Chick Lit

  • Publisher: Routledge

Cosmopolitan Culture and Consumerism in Chick Lit focuses on the literary phenomenon popularly known as chick lit, and the way in which this genre interfaces with magazines, self-help books, romantic comedies, and domestic-advice publications. This recent trend in women’s popular fiction, which began in 1996 with the publication of British author Helen Fielding’s novel Bridget Jones’s Diary, uses first person narration to chronicle the romantic tribulations of its young, single, white, heterosexual, urban heroines. Critics of the genre have failed to fully appreciate chick lit’s complicated representations of women as both readers and consumers. In this study, Smith argues that chick lit questions the "consume and achieve promise" offered by advice manuals marketed toward women, subverting the consumer industry to which it is so closely linked and challenging cultural expectations of women as consumers, readers, and writers, and of popular fiction itself.
