Camille St Martin – Alcohol Free Living. Sobriety. Creativity.

SPILLED...

I finally quit drinking by reading the stories of others, slowly realizing I wasn't alone in what had become my own personal hell of alcohol addiction.

Then my own story spilled out - in poems. So was born this book I put together for you, to maybe help you feel not so alone. It's my not-so-pretty story of getting sober - the darkness, the light, and the truth of everything that is in between.

Readers have called it "vulnerable & relatable," "refreshing," "beautiful, straight-forward, and deeply moving," "raw," "honest & inspiring," and a lot more.

" I felt the poems held a mirror up to my own heart."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Spilled puts words to the very real and challenging internal struggles that we wrestle with when navigating our way out of addiction and into sobriety. Grappling with guilt, bartering, shame, remorse, grief, despair, and a deep sadness for what our lives have become and for who we fear we have become. I felt the poems held a mirror up to my own heart, but instead of the harsh criticisms I often hear in my own head, they spoke to me from a more forgiving, compassionate, and gentle place that provided a safe space in which to witness without judgement the pains and shames we experience in some of our darkest and most vulnerable states. Beautifully empowering. This brave and honest collection of poems will be a source of inspiration and a beacon of hope for anyone who seeks it." -Elle S.

"So relateable & truthful."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Spilled was so raw and truthful with the constant struggles we as alcoholics face on a daily basis. Not just with ourselves but with the people around us who don’t understand. The more I read and related the more I had to keep going, it just clutched me with how much it resonated. I honestly couldn’t put it down once I started! This was such an amazing book!!" -Audrey V.

"The poems really sang this message of being truthful and accepting in who you are."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "So raw, so powerful, so consistent, and so clear. Spilled really sang this message of being truthful and accepting in who you are, regardless of any changes that will happen (and to embrace those changes, because they are the real life waiting for you). Spilled gave me the courage to accept myself, my feelings and understanding to walk away, sleep, or take it slow if needed. This book is great for anyone trying to understand their relationship with alcohol, but it is also for anyone wanting permission to live well." -Sammy M.

These poems are honest and vulnerable, and I found myself connecting with this author and her experiences. The language within these poems is beautiful, straightforward, and deeply moving. The emotion the author spills into these poems is palpable, and by the end, you can truly see the author's growth. I cannot recommend this poetry collection enough!" -Jane

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Spilled is a great addition to your sober toolkit. Every poem is almost like an individual meditation on a different topic, thought, or feeling that goes on throughout recovery. Camille really nails it. It’s like she gets in your head and speaks directly to your experience. She just writes in a way that I think is very heart opening and helps us heal.” –Lisa Smith, author of Girl Walks Out of a Bar

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I’m so excited we have this poetry collection in the quit lit genre now. It’s so personal, and Camille really brings a lot to the page.” -Tawny Lara, author of Dry Humping & founder of Drink Parentheses

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “If you are thinking about getting sober, considering your drinking habits, or if you need a sober friend to tell you their sober story so you don’t feel like an alien in a drinking world… this book will be a guiding light.

Vulnerable and relatable to my own sober journey. I resonate with these words as I try to define what drinking means to me, and how it’s affected me. Through the author’s vulnerable expression, I am able to see that I am not alone in “grey area drinking”– which is a new term to me. This collection illustrates the journey of a “trying girl” who becomes someone who is finally able to quit drinking. It reflected my inner questions of “when do I know this is really bad/rock bottom?” and the poem “moderation monster” is like the essence of why I can’t drink. This book talks about drunk shadows that follow us into our sober selves, and all the ways we have to create ourselves when our memories are lost to the spirits. There’s a lot of self love and self encouragement poems in here.” – Jessica Leigh, author of Stages
