Work In Progress: The Journal Antics of Abigail Nolan
Abigail Nolan wants it all...by the time she is 30.
Looking forward to celebrating her 29th Birthday, she arrives at work only to find a pink slip for a present. If she thought things couldn't get any worse, they do when her fiance of two years breaks it off the same day.
Devastated, she has no other choice but to move back in with her parents. With nobody wanting to hire her or marry her, she finds herself back at square one.
Cramped in her family home with no privacy and endless social media updates of her friends being promoted, getting married or having babies- it all finally gets to her. After a few self pity parties and a lot of wine, she decides enough is enough!
She begins a journal to boost her confidence. Soon she gets a new job at the local Quik Copy and agrees to go on her first date in years. Things are looking up!
What begins as a motivational vice, her journal entries quickly turn into the humorous antics of a newly single gal.
Follow Abigail's journey in her own words as she reinvents herself and learns that having it all may not be what life is really all about!

Work in Progress: The Journal Antics of Abigail Nolan by J.K. Wood is an amusing and downright funny story that kept me in stitches. Abigail's outlook on her own life is hilarious and pragmatic. Her journal is a satirical viewpoint about her shortcomings and is so genuine that the reader can easily relate to Abigail. Not only is it comical, it is also rather poignant. I was in tears throughout the whole story, either from laughing so hard or from sympathizing with Abigail's trials. This is a thoroughly enjoyable and humorous tale and I highly recommend reading it. If you feel down and out, this will help you realize that life ain't so bad, after all! Great story! I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
