Chapter 17

Over the last couple of weeks, things had started to really shape up for Lita. She had gone on a couple of dates with Alex, as well as gotten some real work done with her writing. For the time being, she was working on short stories which she might later put together to make a collection. Getting back to writing seemed to be helping her with her day job too. It took a lot of creativity to work on a marketing campaign, and with her mind in overdrive, she had been able to come up with some great ideas to help her team.

It was an exhilarating feeling and one she hadn’t felt for many years. Which also put her in the limelight with her boss and gave her more work to do. Not that she minded, it made her feel proud she was finally moving forward in her career. For years, she had felt stagnant and stale. Now, she was working on some one of the larger accounts. If all went well, she would more than likely get a promotion, which would put her one step closer to reaching her goals.

Lita had everything laid out on her desk, trying to write out her proposal and set up her PowerPoint presentation for the client. The presentation was set two weeks away, and she needed to have everything perfect before then. Mrs. McDowell walked over to her desk, something she seldom did, and startled Lita out of her focus. “How are things going?”

Jumping, Lita looked up and smiled. “Oh, umm, well, it is coming along. I am still trying to make sure I have the basic outline done before I leave today, then come Monday, I am going to start putting together each section of the proposal and start on the PowerPoint. I should have everything for you to approve by Friday next week.”

“I hope you are able to get it all done. This is a huge account and can really boost the firm's reputation and bring about more big-name clients. Before long, maybe we can bring our business to national clients and make a name for business here in Birmingham. It would be wonderful. We could rival other larger southern cities like Atlanta.” Barbara seemed more than excited about getting the new client, and that put more pressure on Lita to make everything perfect.

“It would be wonderful. I would much rather build and grow with you, and I am starting to feel a little more at home here.” Lita gave her best smile.

“Yeah, you are from a much smaller town. Well, I am glad you are happy here. You really are one of my best workers, and I don’t know what I would do without you. I thought for sure I would have lost you to some big firm in New York or something.” Barbara patted her on the shoulder then walked away. “Keep up the good work. You are doing perfect!”

Yeah, all the pressure. Not to mention, others had heard her words of high praise, which put a target on Lita’s back.
