About the Book
In this raw and candid memoir, a gray-area drinker embarks on a journey of self-discovery and sobriety. Tired of numbing her emotions with alcohol, she decides to treat sobriety as a creative act rather than a punishment. As she confronts her past and the reasons behind her drinking, she realizes that no one is coming to save her - she must save herself. Through moments of struggle and triumph, she learns to embrace her vulnerabilities and find strength in her sobriety. This is a powerful story of resilience, self-discovery, and the healing power of taking control of one's own life.


About the Author
Julie Fontes writes about addiction and other consequences of living from a quaint coastal community in southern California. She enjoys being weird and can’t decide whether to write or exercise first in the morning. One thing that she is sure of is that she will be waiting tables in the evening, and that this is a very professional website. Like a Normal Person is Julie’s first book.
