Susan McMartin Appears Tonight on Dr. Drew's Show, Call in to Chat

After seeing her book on Studio City Patch, the local columnist was asked to go on the show this week.

, longtime columnist as Studio City Mom on Patch, is scheduled to appear on Thursday on the Dr. Drew show on HLN after reading her column.

She was originally scheduled for Tuesday night, but she got late word that she will tape the show live on Thursday. The situation with Hurricane Isaac bumped McMartin for a few days.

McMartin has offered her dramatic book dealing with alcoholism, Understanding the Fall, on Studio City Patch, and online for free—donating it to people in recovery. 

Last week, Patch reprinted the book over the week, () and it got Dr. Drew's attention. He invited her on his show to discuss it.

McMartin said she is shocked, and thrilled.

She emailed:

friends and family -- after over 11 years of making my book,  by hand and donating it to people in recovery, in juvenile hall, in rehab, and just about anywhere else i can  -- it is finally going to be available for purchase online!

last week i posted my book on my weekly studio city patch column and somehow it managed to get the attention of the producers of the Dr. Drew show on HLN. they loved it and have now asked me to be a guest LIVE tuesday night (8/28) on Dr. Drew's show!

needless to say this is an absolute dream come true. finally my little book can reach a broader audience and hopefully get in the hands of all those it might be of service to!

please tune in and watch me try not to fall on my face on live television and please spread the word about my book now being available for purchase. life is truly a mystery... xo

Susan will be reading excerpts from her book and she will be taking questions live on the show as well.

Dr. Drew is 0k, but he made a dumbass statement on his show that ALL drug abusers were using drugs because they were "abused children", that is ridiculous....human beings have been getting HIGH or trying to since they first went upright early alcohol beverages, psychoactive pants, pot used in China for medicine & recreation 2,ooo years ago, Washington & Jefferson grew hemp, want to be they smoked a tad.......

I hope everyone gets through Isaac OK! But, we have a category 5 writer and columnist that was bumped. Now Patch can publicize her upcoming appearance even more!

Dear tbs, Deon Coles black box is the worst tv show ever. Though it is hosted by a black man, it'sRead More a show based on pointing fun and rude Racist jokes directed toward black people. If there was a white host it would be considered racist but because a black man was appointed to be host , you might have figured we wouldn't be offended but we are and I can't speak for all but I feel like resist jokes aren't ok regardless of who is telling them and I would like tbs to take down this show or atleast change the points in the show ! -signed, Kalil Stimpson
