I just read (and was quite moved by) this post, the first of a new blog started by Profiler Pat Brown, whose book How to Save Your Daughter’s Life: Straight Talk for Parents from America’s Top Criminal Profiler is one I acquired and edited when I worked for a traditional publisher. Pat is not a woman who minces her words, and she is true-to-form in this blog, which I share below.
I Always Wanted to Live in a Third World Country and Now I Don’t Have to Move.
Whether you agree with Pat Brown’s ideas or not, she always has an interesting point of view, and I hope you’ll check out her new blog. I know I’m looking forward to reading her thoughts about this next stage of her life.

P.S. Pat has also written other books, including fiction, which you can find here. I recommend Only the Truth!
The combination of technical automation and outsourcing hs made it increasingly difficult for adults of all generations to make a living. And it sucks.
Thanks for posting the link.
Thanks for your thoughts. These are scary times we live in; I wonder what our great-grandparents would think of our “success”?
Thanks for sharing this link, Candace. I completely agree. There is no loyalty in corporate America these days. Every employee is dispensable; it’s a sad state of affairs.
