Part One – Plain Language Terms

You agree to give us a before and after story about you and your recovery journey.

If we choose to use your story, you grant us the right to edit, publish and sell it in an upcoming book we will publish.

You agree that we are not going to pay you for your story or any money the book might make, and you are okay with that. On our end, a portion of the proceeds from the book will go to further the message of recovery through donations to various non-profit organizations and institutions.

You retain all other rights to your story – we don’t own that part of it. You can put your story in a blog or publish it elsewhere as well. That is entirely up to you.
