I'm a poet and new author of two upcoming books titled; From Darkness To Light and More Hart ~ Less Hurt. I battled alcohol and drug addictions for many years and lost everything in my life including my daughters. I've now been clean and sober for over two years and I've had my girls back for 1 1/2 years. I've slowly been trying to regain everything and build a good life for us. I use writing like therapy to help maintain my sobriety.
