Nils Murry has been sober for 364 days. Get through one more, show up clean to his son's birthday party, and he gets his old life back.
Everything rides on it. His home. His wife. His son.
Then the day starts going wrong, and it doesn't let up.
Nils thinks he's working the program. He's about to learn that the real work hasn't started yet, and that the story he tells himself about how he got here isn't the whole story.
Drink is a novel about addiction, fatherhood, and the lies we tell ourselves just to get through the day.
Sean Platt has always been an entrepreneur, but stories were the business he was born to build.
When his wife bought him a laptop for his birthday in 2007, he dropped everything to write fiction.
After a short stint as creative director at a marketing agency — where he learned the kind of copywriting that could turn cliffhangers into an art — Sean wrote hundreds of novels (including international bestsellers), penned Hollywood scripts, and founded Sterling & Stone, an IP incubator where more than two dozen writers turn wild ideas into world-changing stories.
Originally from Long Beach, California, Sean now lives in Austin, Texas, with his wife, Cindy, and their dog, Fisher — both of whom remind him that real life makes the best stories.
