No Direction Home

NOBODY had heard of Hidden Lake Academy, the 'therapeutic boarding' school tucked quietly in the darkness of the Appalachian Mountains. You probably know that every kid ever sent there tried to run, but there was never any use... None of them ever made it, and after the consequences of getting caught? None of them ever tried to run again. No one but me...

But after a dark catastrophe landed me in New England, alone, hitchhiking on the run, homeless, sleeping in abandoned attics filled with counterfeit money, drug addiction, prostitutes and danger, I realized I had nowhere to go, nowhere to sleep, and no money to eat. I was sixteen-years-old, it was a month before 9/11 and it was the greatest time of my life.

Welcome to The Drifter Chronicles... A series of travel memoirs that take you down a journey through the mind of a young drug addicted, romantically dependent and courageous teen on a quest for personal freedom, legendary status and a legacy that will outlive his many tales of dark humor, run-ins with the law and sexual escapades.

A true story.
