Goodreads asked Robert Eric Shoemaker:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Robert Eric Shoemaker "30 Days Dry" was my debut collection. The idea for the book came from a conversation with my father mentioned in the back of the book, in which he mentioned that he thought I "drank too much". This was a symptom of a larger question; "How healthy am I, really?" which I think we've all asked ourselves from time to time. So I ended up journalling about the issues I was facing, and that turned into a manuscript focused on self-improvement with a healthy dose of humor and cat-antics.
