Writing fictional novels about the journey through addiction, brokenness, and the search for self is pretty damn compelling—especially as someone who's been in recovery for several years. #fiction #addictionfiction #stories #books #newrelease #newseries

#Fitness and I have a long, #messy history.
Good stretches. Bad stretches. Starting over more times than I can count. I wrote about that fight—and why I keep stepping back into it anyway. #keepgoing

Writing and researching what constitutes a "2nd edition" for a book I wrote in 2018 and another in 2013. Very interesting. #writing #author
