He also contributed to \"The Rocky Mountain News.\" In his junior year in college, Chambers attended the University of Leeds in England. He did not attend a single class, traveled around Europe instead. He came back and took the final exams, only to be disappointed that he got a 1 in English. He later learned that \"First Honors\" was the highest grade. In the '80s he became a real estate broker while he worked on developing his writing style. Chambers attended law school in the '90's because he observed a real estate closing where the lawyer messed up the deal, but still charged a fee of $1,000. He figured he could mess up a real estate deal for a lot less than that. His literary satire on the legal system, F*ck You, Your Honor, was released in June, 2017. He resides in Littleton, CO.","brand":"Black Letter Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50872764563730,"sku":"9780692831595","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_807c6731-9976-4236-9090-3ad8fafa96be.jpg?v=1737909183","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/fuck-you-your-honor-9780692831595","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
