A bit about Guinevere
When I decided to get sober in 2008 from a problem with prescription painkillers, I started writing under the pseudonym "Guinevere." An ancient Welsh name meaning "white" or "fair," Queen Guinevere—though lovely, powerful, and rich—still lied and cheated to satisfy her desires.
A writer by habit and profession, I started this blog to look at the issue of addiction in the culture. I'm especially interested in reducing the social stigma that prevents people from getting timely help.
I love books, film, and art, and I've got a stack of media old and new that I'll be reviewing here, along with the ongoing appearance of addiction and recovery in the news ... and of course I'll be telling good stories.
