Growing Up ’70s with Guns
Sass Mouth is the true story of how Jacki Eberstarker, an otherwise regular kid, became a complete smart ass and later, a professional stand-up comic. Sounds like another all-American tale, until you factor in a police officer mother, neighborhood high-speed chases and firearms in the junk drawer. She gets through life making fun of everything. But when dark truths emerge, she’s forced to rebuild herself from zero. Sass Mouth proves that even when you’re destined for failure, happiness is the best revenge.
Listen to “Escaping Officer Mom” on The Secret Room Podcast
If you haven’t listened to this podcast, give it a whirl. It’s got a fantastic mix of terrifying, funny and heartwarming stories from people who dare release their stories to the wild. I told a story I wrote in the book. Saying it out loud was a whole other level of cathartic for me. From the responses I got, I’m thrilled people were moved by my ultimate triumph. Just like I say in my book: Happiness is the best revenge.

Still LOVE, LOVE, LOVING your book Jacki!
Stayed up yet again past 1am reading for the fourth night in a row.
Got a little booklight after open mic at that bookstore nextdoor JUST for this purpose.
I cannot put it down.
You’re a true survivor!

You know what I think about the book. And I’m not a reader – I couldn’t put it down. I gotta say, my favorite character in the book is Trixie. 🙂 Thanks for letting me read it even before you had it published. It was awesome, and it really shows that it is possible to overcome the most adverse situations if we believe we can. Love you HB. You da best!
