KEEP on WALKING: A Transformative and Inspirational Journey

A Transformative & Inspirational Journey, Keep on Walking takes you behind the scenes of struggles with addiction in this outspoken, darkly funny...Emotionally moving memoir.

A MOST NEEDED BOOK for Time, Associated Press, Goodreads, USA Today, and more! Sheldon is my name, although many call me a friend. I should be dead.

In this remarkable account, award-winning speaker Sheldon R. S. Crocker describes his journey from childhood trauma to success to addiction and recovery after a life-threatening health event.

It was Sheldon, a five-year-old who shuffled back and forth between his parents on the drive from St. John's to St. Anthony before he was hospitalized often and stayed in rehab. A 17-year-old Sheldon who was an alcoholic getting into trouble in school, a 24-year-old Sheldon who was homeless and eating donuts on the streets; a 49-year-old with 23 straight years of sobriety. . .and so much more.

In a way that only he could convey, in a heartfelt, humorous, and warmly familiar manner. In the book, Sheldon RS Crocker exposes the fractured family that raised him (and also left him to his own devices) and the desire for recognition that pushed him to prominence, as well as the void left inside of him that could not be filled even by the fulfillment of his deepest dreams. He also describes the peace he has found in sobriety and his feelings about life with a dis-ABILITY. He recounts stories about his classmates and others he met along the way. With candour, self-awareness, and witty humour, Crocker vividly depicts his lifelong struggles with addiction and what fueled it.

Keep on Walking supports anyone struggling with sobriety or daily life challenges. A courageous, honest, moving, and hilarious book.
