Almost a Good Man is a recovery memoir told scene by scene. Six months in a halfway house in 1980s Massachusetts. East Boston upbringing. Addiction that should've killed me but didn't.

I write about memory, regret, survival, and the raw corners of a life lived hard. Born and raised in East Boston, I’ve walked through addiction, loss, and the long crawl back to sanity.
