Tanked: Recognizing the Dark edge in Alcoholism

The book is a collection of real-life stories told by both alcohol abusers and those who experienced living with a heavy drinker. Through the contrast of two different perspectives, I hope to get answers to the many questions that others also have: How did it start? Why is drinking the ultimate solution? Alcoholism leads to regrets. This stems from not understanding the situation of the abuser. Not only is this about finding answers, but also preventing the worst to happen.
Learning Outcomes:
Through this term long project, I was able to not only understand how to narrate a book from start to finish but also learn the technicalities to designing a book. Such as budgeting, finding the right paper, setting up a book for print, printing and binding and etc.
