I will be releasing a collection of essays on the heroin/drug epidemic VERY early in the New Year. It will be titled, “Heroin is the Worst Thing to Ever Happen to Me” (the title of one of my articles that was read over 1.5 million times in two months). A true passion project of mine, I am excited and honored to announce that Steve Rogers, PBS producer of Driving Jersey/Here’s the Story will be writing the Foreword and State Congressman Thomas MacArthur will be writing the Afterword.
The book will focus on those who have battled addiction and who are now in Recovery, fellow advocates, as well as families directly affected by the disease of addiction. The book will contain new and previously published interviews/pieces, and will provide “January 2017” updates on interviewees. The book will serve as a cathartic work for families where addiction is/was present with a resource component. It will be available online on Amazon and Barnes and Noble for less than $11.00.
For those wondering when my next poetry book will be released, more on that soon, but it is slated to be released by Andrews McMeel Publishing in April 2017!
