Non-Fiction Memoir
After losing her high-octane job as an entertainment
blogger, Noelle Hancock was lost. About to turn twenty-nine,
she'd spent her career writing about celebrities' lives and
had forgotten how to live her own. Unemployed and full of
self-doubt, she had no idea what she wanted out of life. She
feared change—in fact, she feared almost everything. Once
confident and ambitious, she had become crippled by anxiety,
lacking the courage required even to attend a dinner
party—until inspiration struck one day in the form of a
quote on a chalkboard in a coffee shop: "Do one thing every day that scares you."
—Eleanor Roosevelt Painfully timid as a child, Eleanor Roosevelt dedicated
herself to facing her fears, a commitment that shaped the
rest of her life. With Eleanor as her guide, Noelle spends
the months leading up to her thirtieth birthday pursuing a
"Year of Fear." From shark diving to fighter pilot lessons,
from tap dancing and stand-up comedy to confronting old
boyfriends, her hilarious and harrowing adventures teach her
about who she is, and what she can become—lessons she makes
vital for all of us.
