Wacky on the Junk
In this hilarious debut memoir, Kathy Varner reflects on a life lived on the fringes of ordinary. From an awkward childhood as the youngest of five, living off sweets and processed foods, to a wild adolescence of drinking, drugs, and Deadhead hijinks, to a harrowing career with social services, Kathy takes it all in stride, embracing the beauty and pain of life with a sardonic wit and a sense of adventure that remains undampened--no matter how wacky things get!

"Kathy Varner's freewheeling memoir Wacky on the Junk takes readers on an engaging and spirited journey fueled by sugar (and a few other substances) and told with heart. If you came of age in the era of Wonder Bread and the Grateful Dead, this book speaks your language--and if you, like Varner, feel you were airdropped on the Island of Life, Wacky On The Junk might just have some of the survival tools you need."
-- Anne Sofee, author of Snake Hips: Belly Dancing and How I Found True Love
". . . an honest and candid account of a young woman's coming of age. . . . Kathy shows just how positively one can turn a seemingly hopeless life around and become a more complete person, by pure depth of character or simply growing up and seeing the error of one's ways. Thought-provoking and reflective. . . ."
--Matt McAvoy, author of Granjy's Eyes, Kill the Witch!, Clouds, and The Black Line
