Amy Hatvany graduated with a degree in Sociology only to discover
most sociologists are unemployed. Soon followed a variety of jobs – some
of which she loved, like decorating wedding cakes; others which she
merely tolerated, like receptionist. In 1998, Amy finally decided to
sell her car, quit her job, and take a chance on her true love - writing
books.
Since then, she has authored five novels, and last year, her book OUTSIDE THE LINES was selected by Target’s book club and Costco as a Buyer’s pick. Her latest,HEART LIKE MINE, explores the complicated dynamics within blended families. To learn more about Amy go to: www.amyhatvany.com.

Have you
ever wondered about the physical toll drinking takes on your body? Or
about the earliest sign of alcohol abuse and/or dependence?
On
this show we'll have a candid discussion about the signs and symptoms of
alcohol abuse and alcoholism; they are subtler than you may think, and
there are early signs that often are ignored.
Through the power
of story and conversation, including two guests who will share their
own tale of the descent into alcohol dependence, we will shine a light
on how alcohol abuse and eventual dependence impacts our bodies.
Thank you so much to our guests Amy and Bill for sharing their experience, strength and hope with us all.
