Guitar hope

Hello. My name is R. Scott Dickerson & I was recently released from prison for forgery. I was hooked on pain meds because I was injured @ work way back in May of 2003. When I got dependant on my pain meds I made a bad decision and forged a prescription. I was let out @ the end of January of this year & have not been able to work because of my back & there just aren't many places willing to give me a 2cond chance. so now I started posting guitar tips on the web in hopes that a local music store will hire me to help me out. I have taught guitar in the past as well. I am also working on recording A CD about recovery, addiction & the struggle that lies w/in us all at some point in our lives at my home-made recording studio (s.o.s studios) I am now sober, & wrote over 19 songs with my acoustic that my wife sent to me while I was Incarcerated. I am posting a small lesson tip today but I will have a song ready on video VERY soon & I believe I have a shot to play music for the masses! God Bless!..Scotty D.
