A: Alcohol and Drug Abuse

 

If you’re here for the A to Z Challenge, you’ve come to the right place. This is my third year taking part in the Challenge, and I learned from experience that it’s best to have a theme. That said, I am teaming up with YA Author Rebecca Green Gasper this year, and we’re harnessing the power of three under the theme...

YA Causes/Tough Issues.

So what does that look like?

Moxie Writers will briefly address a YA Cause or Tough Issue facing teens, then offer organizations that aid in the cause, starting with the appropriate letter of the alphabet.

At Rebecca’s blog, she will list a book and characters associated with the issue of the day. This may or may not begin with the designated letter.

Here at my blog, I will share a song with some of the lyrics that pertains to the cause.

Thus, the power of three!

So let’s get started with A!

Alcohol and Drug Abuse

They tried to make me go to rehab but I said 'no, no, no'
Yes I've been black but when I come back you'll know know know
I ain't got the time and if my daddy thinks I'm fine
He's tried to make me go to rehab but I won't go go go

Unfortunately, Amy Winehouse died in 2011 at the age of 27 as a result of alcohol poisoning.
