The novel contributed to a shift in Black popular cultural consciousness and the visibility of a female Black middle-class identity in popular culture.

McMillan was credited with having introduced the interior world of Black women professionals in their thirties who are successful, alone, available, and unhappy.

1998

In 1998, another of McMillan's novels, How Stella Got Her Groove Back, was adapted into a film by the same name starring Angela Bassett and Taye Diggs.

McMillan married Jonathan Plummer in 1998, who came out as gay during their marriage.

2000

McMillan's novel Disappearing Acts was subsequently produced as a direct-to-cable feature by the same name in 2000, starring Wesley Snipes and Sanaa Lathan and directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood.

2005

In March 2005, she filed for divorce.

2006

McMillan also wrote The Interruption of Everything (2006) and Getting to Happy (2010), the sequel to Waiting to Exhale.

2012

On July 13, 2012, she sold her 7,000 square feet home in Danville, California, before moving to Los Angeles, California.

McMillan has one child, a son, Solomon.

2014
