Brantford, Ontario. Canada May 19, 2005 / -- Tristan Becker announces publication of YOU’RE FIRED! in conjunction with Lulu, the world’s only independent publishing and print-on-demand marketplace and community for all things digital. True stories about real people that have had the rug pulled out from underneath them with two little words, YOU’RE FIRED! Tristan Becker has shown us that being fired doesn’t have to be traumatic or crushing. She helps us look at those words with an optimistic point of view, by taking the power out of the words and applying it to oneself in a empowering and refreshing way. Tristan Becker wrote You’re Fired, because there are more people being fired in today’s economy and she has given them a voice that needs to be heard. This is the real reality, not a reality show. As long as there are people who have personal stories of their experiences, Tristan Becker will be there to write it. She came to Lulu because she wanted to be in control of the publishing process and found Lulu’s print-on-demand tools to be fast, easy and, most importantly, free. YOU'RE FIRED! is available for purchase at www.lulu.com, in a marketplace filled with other unique, and sometimes, downright strange, items. Tristan states, "Writing the book was the hard part. Getting it published and printed through Lulu was a breeze." [For a quote from a Lulu executive, please contact Melissa London at pr@lulu.com].
