About the Author...

Linda Joy Allan wrote the acclaimed book, "I Quit! Cigarettes, Candy Bars & Booze,” to share her honest, sometimes harrowing, sometimes humorous, story of a decades-long addiction to cigarettes, alcohol and overeating.

Allan’s book has been described as a "courageous account, ultimately victorious," of her journey from being a 200-pound chain smoker and heavy drinker to overcoming all three addictions.

Today, she’s addiction-free and living life to the fullest on California’s beautiful Pacific Coast. And she’s on a mission to help others say I Quit!

“This is YOUR life. You’re wasting YOUR time. Decide to quit; then do it!”

Linda Joy Allan is out to motivate those who are missing out on an addiction-free life. She’s been there; now she’s here to help with her compelling “Blunt Talk About Addictions” series of articles, blog, and coaching and consulting services.

“No more excuses! If you’re denying that you have a problem, stop it! Get yourself on the road to recovery right now, no matter what it takes. It’s never too late.”

Check out Linda’s blog, “Blunt Talk About Addictions,” and post your comments. Whether you’re an addict, or a friend or family member of someone who hasn’t kicked an addiction, you’ll find no-nonsense advice and powerful “I Quit” resources.
