How does alcohol destroy romances?





It nauseated him. She gave him water to feel better. His lips were dry. He puked in a washbowl, and she courage him to continue, to clean his body from the poison. This was a daily routine after weekend parties. The rest of the day he was sleeping to recover himself. 

Sally remembered last night. She was also drinking. 1,2,3,5 or more beers, who count? At first, everything was better. The lights in the club were fabulous, she was a dancing queen and guys looked at her. Later, she went to pee, and the toilet was full of ladies in the line. The fuck, she thought, why should she wait in the line with some bimbos?

She was aggressive. She could not wait. She peed outside in the ambush. Then her boyfriend asked her something, she did not hear him. She kicked the wall of an abandoned coffee bar with her feet. "Stop, you will break the window. " Sally was aggressive, and they fought. She remembered everything 6 hours later. Now, Sally is looking at her sleepy boyfriend, who is lying in bed. 

They are one couple who drink a lot for the weekends. Sally said that is enough.

She counted all the consequences and made a list of how alcohol affects her. 

She is aggressive.

She is depressed.

It frustrates her.

She is hypersensitive.

She hates people.


Her boyfriend, Kevin, made his list, too.

It depresses him.

He is pessimistic.

He lost a sense. 

He hated Sally, because of the scenes she made.

He can't sleep well.


They are aware of this, so this is the first step. Alcohol is like a seductive woman. At first, you feel fascinated with the joy and adrenaline she brings, but later, after she has gone, your frustrations grow. It was the one-night stand adventure, which brings only nausea and headache.

Swapping books - a devil's deal

  "I will read your book if you read and review mine." This is an example of author's deal when it comes time for reviews. Reviews is hard to get. If you sell books, it is still not guarantee you will get reviews. If I could get a review for every book I sold, it would be great. People will buy book to collect it on the shelves and leave it un-read. Or, they will read but not rate it. Many reasons are for not getting reviews, but some people don't know where and how to write reviews or are not eligible. That is the reason why authors will turn to other authors, with a proposition for review. The danger of such review is on Amazon rules: author can't review other's author books on request. I love to read indie authors and they inspire me, but I have my circle and I never accept offers to read someone I never heard about. Once I got a proposition :" Hey, I saw your review for XX author, can you write it for me, too?" I ignored it. When you have a deal ...
