3. I love to write and think about writing my own book daily.



1. Good for you!

2. Hey! Me too. lol

3. You should. What genre of book would you write?

1. I'm a bartender (so not a people person, social bee), been in a couple of b-movies

2. The junkyard dog also winds up laying on my feet, so to speak
(literally happened in childhood)

3. Mostly indie-bands, nobody huge

Thank you very much - It is one of the things I am most proud of.

Nice SG - We could do some damage at a bar lol

As for the book - I don't know - I have experienced so much in such a short time and I would like to apply that in order to help others not make the same mistakes I did. If I could help one or two wayward teens, who are on the threshold I was on way back then, I would be happy as a pig in slop. smile

Sounds like you could do a 180 here and try to be more of a people person.

Being good with animals is great. I was never allowed pets, so I'm not a big animal person.

Write every day. The only one who needs to see it is you. No need for fear or shame around that guy, is there??

Fear of how I would be judged today and shame at how far I truly allowed myself to fall back then...

However I am thinking about it more and more lately and no matter how low I got then, I would still rather keep someone from that kind of life.

Maybe it is a sign because it sure has been on my mind an awful lot these last few weeks.

The book isn't based on my experience here rather my experience as a drug addict.

Kind of like A Million Little Pieces, but actually true!

You should totally do it, even if you only write it for you.
