What happens when you learn that your life was never your own? 
THE MOST RECENT EDITORIAL REVIEW
Author Lindsay Wincherauk is down on his luck and headed for midlife collapse. Working two dismal jobs to pay his trendy Yaletown rent, grieving the sudden loss of two friends and family members, and dumped by the love of his life - Lindsay looks for the nearest exit. He decides on a whim to escape to Europe with his buddy Dave. By a twist of fate, his life turns completely upside down when he attempts to renew his passport and discovers he's the main character in a dark family secret. Reeling from the shock, Lindsay grabs his bags and blasts through 11 countries in 31 days.

Wincherauk's story moves at breakneck speed as the author describes his flight through pain and madness, spinning into surreal side trips where he meets an inferno of wild characters. Back in Vancouver, while driving a suicidal man to work, a light goes on and Lindsay knows what he must do: write his story. He's come precariously close to self-destructing and knows that until the hidden pieces of his life are uncovered, something would be missing. Writing his way through the dark chapters, with wit and candour, he breaks through to the other side - reborn.

MY LIFE IS AN OPEN BOOK
​

Lindsay Wincherauk watched both of his parents die. He was the youngest of seven. After the death of his mother (1987)—he became an outsider in his own family. In 2003 he found out, by accident, he was a secret baby born in a secret place—a shame to the family. A secret never meant to be uncovered.

Driving in Reverse – The Life I Almost Missed is the story of a little boy (Lindsay) and his struggles to fit into the family portrait. Little did he know: everything in his life was not as it seemed. Lindsay weaves his way through the years, living the only life he knew—unaware of the foundation rocking news he would one-day stumble upon by accident. During his journey, he excels at athletics, crosses paths with Manuel Noriega, David Duchovny, and Michael Chiklis. Lindsay crashes a motorcycle in Jamaica. And, he brushes past the Dali Lama in a shopping mall food-court, one early fall evening.

His story is about kindness. It’s about coming to terms with who you’ve become. It’s about turning pain into laughter. And, it’s a story about belonging.

At the end of this volume of life, Lindsay crawls out the other end of the book and begins to embrace the man he has become!

​We all fit in—we all matter.

​We all belong in the picture!
At the risk of sounding cliché, Lindsay’s life is without question:
  • Lindsay resides in Vancouver. 
  • He doesn’t text and drive.
  • He once left his phone in a drawer at home when he travelled to Europe. A friend, asked him: “How will you function?” He did.
  • His cat, Hana, doesn't like human food.
  • He doesn’t like porn – nudity of course – but porn—  
  • He often sleeps in the—>
