All I Can Take of You comprises fourteen linked, sequential short stories and a novelette which follow Brynn Wittman through her truncated marriage and subsequent series of jobs and love affairs, ending with her random death in an office shooting. Brynn is a humorous, self-lacerating sometime alcoholic who struggles to derive meaning and humor from failed relationships, family disintegration, jobs, and moves. The stories begin with a brief retrospective that glances over a tumultuous childhood and adolescence as her once prosperous family deteriorates to poverty in the wake of her father's emotional collapse.

Her short story "Light Fingers" and its script adaptation are under option to director Brad Furman and Sony. Linda adapted the biography of film noir actress Barbara Payton, with producer Don Murphy.
