Fiona Lucas knew her life was spiraling out of control. She was doing anything and everything to numb the pain she felt inside, but nothing seemed to work. When an online ad began appearing on her Facebook page for help with writing, she jumped at the chance for a fresh start. The process was surprisingly easy and by the end of it, Fiona had been offered a contract from one of the most prestigious publishers in London - despite only submitting one short story. Fiona has now become a successful author, but in order to keep up with both work and personal life, she's still relying on pills and alcohol to mask her pain - just like before.
