Dave's Interests

General	I've heard it said more then once - "It's a simple program, but it ain't easy."
Music	A little selfish (yet very grateful) - the "Purple Power" CD. Click on the banner to learn more.
Movies	"When a man loves a woman." And this little diddy of mine on the "The Third Step Prayer."
Television	You could say in 24 hours, I might be on the FRINGE, of getting LOST, after my PRISON BREAK. And it's possible because of THE PROMISES
Books	Mine of course. "Damaged Merchandise" was my first book, written about ten years after the gift of sobriety came into my life. It's about the hopes and dreams that come alive through sobriety. "War Zone" is the prequel to that book and it's a self-help book. It deals with my first two years of sobriety. Which involved out-patient therapy, AA, and of course the court system. It was written using actual journal notes at that time. Below that are the trailers for these books.
Heroes:	cancer survivors, those who have the courage to attend that first meeting ... and then... come back A poem I was asked to write - Enjoy! "Battles Lost... The War Is Won"

Dave's Schools

Yankton College
Yankton, SD
Grad Year: 0000
Student Status: Alumni
Degree:
Major: Major Partying
Clubs: This was the end of my sane drinking. Party hardy! Dropped out after two years. Tired of the rules and garbage. At the time I dropped out had a 3.5 GPA - but partying was more fun. My claim to claim in college was creating a board game called "Trilogy of Tranquility." A three step board game. First was Beeropoly, than you advanced to the second session which was Bongolopy, than the final phase was Mellow.

From 1976 to 1978

About me:

Author of two self-help books on recovery. Working on the third. I write a weekly poetry column for a local newspaper, and this past year produced my first audio CD! A 12 song ensemble written for cancer survivors and their families entitled "Purple Power."

My Twelve Step Poem

Who I'd like to meet:

John Bradshaw - he was a major force in my early recovery. He became my mentor and surrogate father. Bradshaw was also the man who taught me that it was alright to "think outside the box" when it comes to Higher Powers.

The Seventh Step Prayer
