I have returned from my travels in Philadelphia. It was a great trip and I must say that I think I single handedly revitalized the city's economy. Seriously, the mayor should give me like a certificate or something. I went a little crazy but it was way fun! I miss the big city environment if not simply for the wonderful vegetarian and vegan options at so many restaurants…
Holla! I hope your weekend served you well. I had a great one with one minor exception. I was at my usual Saturday morning body combat class, throwing punches and kicking the air like Jackie Chan on crack. This is how I roll…
Oh I said it and I know yes, technically, I am a Penn State Alumni and I am not deterring from my duties as a respectfully proud alumni...in fact I invoked Dear Old State multiple times and paid homage to my alma mater. However, I must give props where props are due and University of Connecticut was nothing but good times!!
Wow, is all I can say about my first book signing at Barnes and Noble! I am so grateful for all of you who came out to hear me speak and to purchase my book. I couldn't believe every time I looked up how many more faces I saw in the crowd. You were a beautiful group of people and so encouraging for me as the author!
And as you can see my schedule is getting rather crazy! But it is all good in the hood. I am so excited to be able to spread the message of awareness everywhere I possibly can. Please check out my tour page to see where I will be in the month of April. I have several events coming up including radio and lots of travel…
Hey Everyone!
On Monday night very late my time-- I will be going live on the Recovery Talk Radio Network with Larry W. It is a two hour show! The best part is you can be a part of it.
Got questions about me? Questions about the Book?
Well call in toll free Monday night on March 24th during 11PM-1AM Eastern Time or 8PM-10PM Pacific Time and ask away!!!
Sorry I couldn't resist...I am like a 1/3 Irish so I had to represent. I just got back from the Writers at the Beach Conference in Rehoboth Delaware. I don't think I can even find words that can express how energizing, wonderful, educational, inspiring and rejuvenating this whole trip was...oh hey look, I just found some words!
Happy Friday Everyone!
I totally missed American Idol last night and am so bummed to hear that Alexandrea got kicked off! I loved her!!! So unfair. I was in the WITF-TV studio doing the Smart Talk program instead, which was great. I had to laugh when I realized they had the first half hour dedicated to the electric company and then had me on talking about the book…
Hello everyone!
I hope this post finds you well on this holiday Monday-at least for most of us this is a holiday!
I wanted to share a recent review with you all that just hit news stands in the March edition of Curve Magazine! www.curvemag.com to learn more about this female positive magazine!

Thank you to all those who came out to Pattee Library on a very cold, wet and icy night. I was so impressed with how many of you came in the horrible weather! It was a wonderful night and a great start to my book tour. Here is the article that ran in the Daily Collegian today!
Hello!
Exciting news! The book is officially out! Your little package should have arrived or will anyday now! I do hope you enjoy your glipse into my world.

If you are near State College tomorrow night please come check out my first lecture and book reading…
Ike Turner, Brad Refeno and now Heath Ledger...sad...tragic....unthinkable...
To call any one of these deaths an accidental overdose flies directly in the face of the reality of addiction. As a recovering addict for more than ten years, I can tell you there is nothing accidental about an addict's choice to overmedicate. It is in fact the inherent nature of the disease…
