Diary of a High-Risk Lifestyle

Due to childhood trauma, Kay finds herself on the streets in her twenties. Unable to get a job and with a drug addiction, she becomes a streetwalker. At first the lifestyle works and gives a feeling of being in control. But then Kay loses her regular clients and ends up doing work she swore she would never do. She is gang raped, shaken down by police and dosed with PCP at a Mafia party. Her alcohol and drug use spiral out of control. As Kay is down on her luck, a mutual acquaintance introduces her to a young go-getter whose nonjudgmental companionship inspires her to leave sex work. What are "johns" really like. What are the best and worst parts of dealing with them. Kay's story and hilarious cartoons by award-winning cartoonist Martha Rosenberg will give you an irresistible, sometimes humorous, peek into this hidden and shocking lifestyle.
