I don't journal, I write. - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Since *I* am the alcoholic, I don't know if I did this right and if someone's up to a midnight read at 8:18 in the morning, I'd appreciate comments. Obviously, you aren't going to know the characters or the story, but this is a rehab-sort-of-thing and I'm worried it's not right. If anyone can help out, I'd appreciate it.

I'm getting ready to go into rehab again --this time medically based. There'll be a chapter for that too, after I get there. I'm sorry I missed out on writing the last time, there were the hugest weirdoes and interesting people. My favorite was an 18 year old heroin addict who had EVERYTHING to live for and was pissing away. Personally, heroin scares the hell out of me... turns out he had my maiden name so we spent countless hours trying to figure out if we were related.

I did enjoy the read.

Nice job om defining the ties between the characters.

Have no clue how "correct" it is but you left me wanting to see more of the tale.
That is a valid indication that the story line is worthwhile. IMO

I particularly liked Lynn.
