A note from the author:

I am Todd, an alcoholic and more. I have been in recovery since 1987. Back then, I, like many newcomers, gnashed and recoiled from the "God stuff" in AA. Eventually, I found my answer but not before considerable froth had crossed my lips.

I hope you're enjoying The Book of Tater. I am not sure this story will ever end as the various characters in the story are each, in their own ways interesting - and, in the context of recovery where interesting people abound, plausible. It is also bizarre and demonstrates that creativity can thrive without a drunken muse.

Please read our comment policy. - The Fix
