Reviews
Fixing Your Head Made Easy in New Book (Scott Hayes, St. Albert Gazette, 9/28/2011).
"This book is smart, engaging and ever so funny even as it offers insight into all of the things that have gone wrong."
Review (Mike Landry, Telegraph-Journal, 8/6/2011).
"If there is a lesson to be taken away from Choyce's own oddball coping mechanisms ... it's that we all need to find a place or activity where we are completely comfortable with letting life happen."
