Is There Room For Me, Too?: 12 Steps & 12 Strategies for coping with mental illness - Paperback

Deborah Fruchey tried to write her first book at the age of 8. She became bipolar with psychotic features at the age of 13, was diagnosed at 26, and has been stabilized since the early 1990s. Her first novel was chosen as Best Book by the American Bookseller's Association. She worked in international banking until her condition became disabling, and afterwards for 12 years in her local library. She is the author of two novels and one collection of poetry in addition to her nonfiction. You can visit her online at www.lafruche.net.

Recently married and committed to life as a full time author, she no longer understands why she ever bothered with anything else.
