A desperate and pregnant young girlfriend, financial disaster and an angry soon to be ex-wife...what more could an emerging alcoholic ask for. Rock bottom comes in stages as forgivable mistakes become habits and missed obligations become a way of life. Jon Bancroft’s wife throws him out, he loses his job and his house and even the desperate Millie wants nothing to do with him preferring her abusive parent’s home to Jon’s. He uses self-deprecating humor, rationalization and booze to cope...and he manages to juggle his missteps until his life becomes one continuous binge. But affable Jonny finds, in the abyss, that salvation is a choice; a chance to make things right…or as right as they can be made. Funny, sad and finally hopeful, Whiskey Me Away will leave you feeling optimistic about overcoming even the greatest misgiving
