Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I am, by my own admission, a reluctant writer. But there are stories that demand to to be told. When we hear them, we must pick up our pen, lest we forget and the stories be lost.

Six years ago, in a quiet conversation with my friend Marvin, I learned the tragic story his father, a WW2 B-29 Airplane Commander, shot down over Nagoya, Japan just months before the end of the war.

Bill Clinton has famously said: "They were the fathers we never knew, the uncles we never met, the friends who never returned, the heroes we can never repay. They gave us our world. And those simple sounds of freedom we hear today are their voices speaking to us across the years."

Such a man was Marv’s father. A father he never knew. The telling of the story that evening by this half orphan was so moving and full of emotion, it compelled me to ask if I could write the story. The result being “They Called Him Marvin.”

My life has been profoundly touched in so many ways by being part of documenting this sacred story. I pray that we never forget, as a people, the depth of sacrifice that was made by ordinary people like Marvin and his father and mother on our behalf.

My career as an addiction counselor (CDP) lead me to write “The Waterfall Concept; A Blueprint for Addiction Recovery," and co-author "Reclaiming Your Addicted Brain."

After my counseling retirement, I decided I wanted to learn more about the craft of writing and started attending classes at Portland Oregon’s Attic Institute. What I learned is that there are an mazing number of great writers in my area and they were willing to help others improve their skills. I am grateful to many of them.

My next project is already underway, a memoir of growing in SW Washington called “Life on a Sorta Farm.” My wife of 49 years, Susan and I still live in that area.

We raised seven children, and have eleven grandchildren. We love to travel and see the sites and cultures of the world. I still get on my bicycle whenever I can.

With a no-nonsense attitude, Roger cuts straight to the essence of addiction and in a compassionate and caring way shows the pathway to begin recovery.

For anyone who suffers from addictive behaviors of any kind, has a loved trapped by addiction, or who wishes to better understand addiction, this book is a must have. It will lead to more, clarity, perspective, and understanding as we all try to navigate our personal trials. I give this book and Roger my personal recommendation and know first hand of his sincerity and compassion.

Thanks for the great read.

The waterfall Concept is a book that personally changed my life. It is written with a view that connects with the heart, especially for those that are struggling with addiction. Stark's message resonates because he shares from experience as an addiction coach-he know what it takes, he knows what works. He knows what is like to need this book. Reading this book provided me with a hope that I had never had before, and strength to begin my battle in earnest against my addiction.

I have read many books and this one is just what I needed to help me with my own addictions and I am sending it to my Grandson who is having real difficult times with his self image due to his addictions. I believe he will find the help and support he needs to build his confidence and self-belief while being successful in overcoming his addictions.
