Description
At 28, Stephanie Land's plans to attend a university and become a writer were cut short when a summer fling turned into an unexpected pregnancy. She turned to housekeeping to make ends meet and provide her daughter the very best life possible. Stephanie worked days, took classes online to earn a college degree, and began to write relentlessly. She wrote the true stories that weren't being told: the stories of overworked and underpaid Americans. She wrote to remember the fight, to eventually cut through the deep-rooted stigmas of the working poor.
