Water Cooler Diaries: Women Across America Share Their Day at Work
by Joni Cole and Bindi Rakhra
March 2008: Complete Astrologer has hit the big time. (ahem.)
One year ago, I participated in the third
Day Diary Project, which invited hundreds of women from all across the
For me, that meant journaling about my day on the job as an astrologer. Not something you hear about very often.
Joni and Bindi selected 35 day diaries to feature in this, their latest book, along with many shorter excerpts (like mine). Now, one year later, Water Cooler Diaries has arrived at bookstores! The book asks:
“What is a day on the job really like for a fashion designer, a medical examiner, a race car driver, a celebrity chef... [and let's not forget: an astrologer]…? Water Cooler Diaries lets you go behind-the-scenes with working women across the country (whether that work comes with a paycheck or not). From cubicle drama to multi-tasking moms; from career highs to bosses from hell, this third volume in the acclaimed This Day series pays off big time in intimate details, laugh-out-loud truths, and a new kind of job satisfaction!”
Joni and Bindi are currently speaking at bookstores and libraries, and to groups around New England and beyond, to discuss the Day Diary phenomenon. Local day diarists who participated in the project will be on hand to read aloud from their diaries.
Check out the offical This Day In The Life website to learn more about the Day Diary series, share your own Day Diary, or schedule an event with the authors.
