Book 3 of 7:
The craziest chaos begins here, in CHAOS. It’s the story of ever-growing mayhem in the life of alcoholic Lela Fox as she fights to fake a normal life... feeling terminal guilt for living a lie.
With the trauma of her teens and marriage #1 behind her, Lela gives “being normal” another shot, this time as a part-time mother with part-time freedom to party.
Far from a drunk-a-logue, CHAOS reads like a novel, with dynamic action and poignant dialogue. The story begins when her future was bright and blooming, a career on the fast track, and ends with Lela’s terror when looking deep into the eyes of the relentless ogre of the disease.
Drunk and stuck in the chaos of marriage #2, Lela has lost the power to change. CHAOS continues as she drinks away all but two choices; her choice won’t surprise an alcoholic, but her twist on survival tactics is ingenious.
As Book Three in the Life & Times of a Curious Drunk series, CHAOS covers Lela through ages 25-35. In this decade, she survives the slow simmer of alcoholism as it comes to a rolling boil, with a string of bizarre tales… the good, the bad, and the funny. Follow the life of this courageous woman – a drunk with uncanny luck and a sober soul with unending stamina.

READERS LOVE CHAOS!
“Lela’s creativity screams a story that will make your toes curl! I recommend it to any alcoholic, no matter how much time they have, including my many sponsees. She’s real, speaking the feelings an alcoholic deals with every day. I’ve read other memoirs over the years, but this one is my absolute favorite. It’s from the heart.
That’s 3 for 3, Lela! I’m ready for book 4 and feel sure I’ll read all 7 to champion you through all the crap to come. Thanks for sharing your life with me.”
