Why did I write these books?
The simple answer is I wrote it out of gratitude for the incredible gift of sobriety, in hopes of helping others find it, too.

Journey to Sobriety: Forty Years and Counting
“
“My wife recently asked me, ‘When are you going to truly retire?’ And I said, ‘As soon as I get tired of seeing miracles.’ I’ve seen people come in here, scared and angry and resentful, some of them get that transformation. I think for them to get there, they’ve got to be open, honest, willing and have courage.”

Journey to Sobriety: 34 Years and Counting
BIO
Hi, I’m Tom I’m an alcoholic. I think I need to establish my credentials for you the reader, to know I’ve probably been where you have been. I’m now on the other side. I have been in recovery for over 39 years.
I knew I was alcoholic in my early twenties. I had no denial; I just didn’t give a damn. I was wild, irresponsible; I took advantage of people and was self-centered. I really didn’t like the taste of beer or booze, I only liked what it did for me.
My first wife divorced me because I could not be counted on to be a reliable husband. We had three small children and I felt guilty when occasionally I’d take a look at what I was.
I drank in places where I fit in. I was a hustler, a full blown alcoholic an occasional brawler and I didn’t stand out because we all were pretty much the same in the joints I chose.
I was pretty sure I would not live long as I was always walking on the edge. I thought I was either destined for prison or early death. I met guys from the 12 step program while in the county jail. They came in to do meetings. They talked to me once in a while, but I was not interested. I always felt a kinship with these guys, but I wasn’t ready.
When I was ready it worked for me and has continued to work for me for over 39 years. My life has changed. What was once important to me is no longer important. What I shunned in my drinking days has become primary in my life of sobriety. This can work for anyone who has the desire to change the course of their life. If you’re ready for a new way of life, give it a sincere try and hang on. You will not believe where this path will take you.
