I Was a Teenage Dominatrix: A Memoir

Shawna Kenney celebrates the 3rd printing of her memoir, I Was a Teenage Dominatrix, the true story of one woman’s quest for self-education, in academia and beyond. The book has enjoyed two prior US printings, translations abroad, and options for film.  I Was a Teenage Dominatrix enjoys a new incarnation, thanks to popular demand and Punk Hostage Press.
