I’m taking part in Making Milestones—a creative fundraising challenge to support The Milestone House, a recovery residence that provides safe, structured housing for people rebuilding their lives after addiction.

I started playing guitar and writing songs after I got sober. I have written a few songs that I really love. It was always my intention to record them so I would always have them. I never got around to it, so that is my CHALLENGE. I have already asked a friend if he would help me and he said, yes.

My goal is to have at least one of my songs professionally recorded by the end of June. This is a huge challenge for me that involves overcoming some fear and self doubt. I think that's why I decided to do this, because for me this will be very hard and it feels extremely vulnerable.

But it's for a great cause!!
