“As more and more Americans are discovering, losing your job is rough and scary. But it can also be the jolt you need to launch a great career. Take it from J.K. Rowling, Suzanne Somers and Madonna, all of whom made millions after getting fired from an unhappy day job: Opportunity can be hidden just about anywhere — even on a pink slip.”

This is an excerpt from a story called Fired and Fabulous! from a website called: The Women on the Web. It is about nine women who made it big after finding themselves out of work.
I highly recommend you check it out, especially if you are someone who has lost a job. No matter your gender, it may provide a little bit of much-needed inspiration.
Is it time to start that novel you’ve always wanted to write?
