My essay, “Blinders,” appears in this wonderful anthology with Breakwater Books. All proceeds go to recovery programs for addiction. My sister, Meghan, gave me permission to write this piece about her battle with addiction.
From the Publisher:
About Face: Essays on Addictions, Recovery, Therapies, and Controversies seeks to broaden the conversation around addiction in Canada. Featuring essays by a diverse group of writers, About Face delves into the major categories of addiction: drugs, alcohol, sex, pornography, video games, gambling, body dysmorphia, and eating disorders. With stories by those suffering from addictions, experts in the field, and service providers, this anthology is a far-reaching intervention into one of our country’s most rapidly expanding social problems.
