Great gift book idea
Great Holiday gift with frivolous cavorting, hilarious imbibing antics and with a message in WITHOUT THE LAMPSHADE
Friday, September 9, 2016
Don’t miss my FREE GIVEAWAY for WITHOUT THE LAMPSHADE on Goodreads to September 21
Did you ever wake up under a chicken coop covered with
overnight droppings? I have. Have you ever barbecued yourself on a hot stove? I
did. Have you ever come home smashed, ending up the unintended clown for your
daughters’ sleepover? I did. Were you ever so hungover you forgot your own
name? I was. I once went with my brother-in-law for a haircut, an excuse to go
to a bar, and lost him for three days. I almost fell off the roof of the
Peabody Hotel, smashed, looking for the famous ducks.
WITHOUT THE LAMPSHADE - How I Learned to Love my Brown
Martini is my tale of boozing through roughly twenty-five years of my life,
performing some hilarious antics that defy belief. In a quarter century I made
it my job, a career, if you will, to pursue hard drinking in lieu of becoming
the typical working stiff. It was more important to get to the bar for the
first drink than work late for advancement. But I was still lucky, mostly
finding people and companies that drank as much as I did. I was a happy drunk
that has one hell of an adventure to relate.
Thanks and good reading!

Booze, fun and sobriety
WITHOUT THE LAMPSHADE-How I Learned to Love my Brown Martini has just been published and is available at Amazon.com. You can enjoy it in both Kindle and the paperback edition.
During the period covered in my new memoir of some crazy drinking days, my expectations were that I would not live past the age of fifty-five based on the amount of booze I drank and the number of cigarettes I smoked. When I shared this with friends and relatives, and they saw me in action, they agreed. Somehow I made it to eighty-four and decided I was meant to chronicle these hilarious years of inebriation.
If you are looking for a few hours of laughs (incidents like, after boozing all night waking up under a chicken coop covered with overnight droppings) with a vignette here and there of sheer reality, take a look at, WITHOUT THE LAMPSHADE-How I Learned to Love my Brown Martini. Buy it at Amazon.com.
Thanks for reading!
