WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A KICK-ASS FAIRY? Looking for a fairy tale to make into a musical? Look somewhere else. Linda Zercoe offers up a series of unfortunate events in a memoir that rivals the stories of the Brothers Grimm. Life can be capricious and cruel. In this memoir, the author-heroine faces family tragedy and battles multiple forms of cancer. Through one trial after another, Zercoe learns to harness her talents and powers and develop the strength, gumption and resilience to make a life worth living. Attitude is a potent charm against all forms of adversity, and this particular kick-ass fairy proves it’s not what you’ve got, but what you do with it that counts.
Linda Zercoe grew up in the greater NY area. She has been an RN in patient care settings and a CPA working in the financial services industry. By far her longest career has been as a Cancer Warrior, battling five different kinds of cancer for two decades while raising a family. Linda lives in California with her husband.
