Introduction to Drug Stories Chapter

I thought it would be fun to have first hand sources of information here. Especially for some of the drugs that many people might not know so much about. Kind of a different perspective than you’ll find in other chapters. The writers range from a teenager in college to an 80-something-year-old woman who hangs out at a senior center a few days a week. They are just people who wanted to say something about a particular substance or about their experience in general. To read more stories like these that didn’t make it into the book, you can visit the blog connected to www.howtohavefunandnotdie.com.
P.S. A terrific writer was originally lined up to write a piece on Adderall, but he was constantly on and off his medication, completely disorganized and was never able to finish his story. I considered having someone else do it, but realized that the above fact is telling enough. Even more telling is that 37 months later, that same person has now failed to hand in his story for the 2nd Edition, even though we’ve spoken about it at least twice a year and once a week in these last two months. We even lived on the road together for 2 weeks along the west coast of the U.S. in May, 2009, a time frame in which it did not get written. For further details on that time period, refer to the “Escape from Moss Beach – Part 1” story in my future book, most likely titled, Stayin’ Alive: U.S. Drug Tour 2009.
