Evolution of a Baby Boomer

Life Beyond Sex, Drugs, and Rock 'n' Roll*

by Joyce Fidler

Countless people begin adulthood focused on the pursuit of self-centered pleasure-seeking, fun, and oblivion. Plenty of folks end their lives the same way after sometimes wreaking havoc in the lives of people who love them along the path to their self-destruction.

In Evolution of a Baby Boomer, Joyce Fidler takes us on her journey as a record store owner and rock-band singer who begins her adult years in the Bible Belt where sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll dominate her life. As she relocates to LaLaLand in her forties, she invites readers to witness her unexpected transformation to a fruitful, productive citizen. The how and why of this metamorphosis includes a divorce from a polyamorous marriage, separation from her teenaged children, with an eventual surrender to recovery from marijuana and alcohol addiction. *Some explicit material included.*
