Hello readers, if you are in the mood to read some inspiring stories, please check out How We Work! You will encounter well-written stories and poems about growth, humility, success,and diverse experiences in various roles.
“This is How We Work” is an anthology about the experience of work and some of the social layers that connect to our effort and process.
This is How We Work (2025) is an anthology of memoir, fiction, and poetry that explores the social dimensions of work. This book offers a rich variety of writing, including six nonfiction pieces, four fictional stories, and four chapters of poetry. It flows smoothly, offering the reader adventure, new perspectives, and vivid settings that entertain and enlighten.
We have career insights, shares about good leaders and the ivory tower, long exits, feeling presence while waiting, a paperknife incident, a sci-fi story, a clasroom with a safety issue, exhaustion doing unpaid work, leading to transform a non-performer, a chapter about asylum ghosts, and so much more….

I will be sharing more about the book soon because I want to feature each chapter in a post. In the meantime, here is a little bit more about the book:
The collection in THIS IS HOW WE WORK examines technology, values, responsibility, and problem-solving, with touches of the supernatural and sci-fi adding unexpected depth. By highlighting the relationships, power structures, and personal challenges, and cultural expectations that shape our experiences, this book invites readers to gain self-awareness, enjoy the writing, and learn as we explore the social dimensions of work. Through teaching, caregiving, writing, leadership, cycling, and the pursuit of aligning work with identity, 13 authors offer diverse, personal perspectives on challenges, triumphs, and transformations. A few of the chapters take you away on an adventure and then others leave you thinking, smiling, or reflecting. I really think you will enjoy this book.
