Hot, Wet, and Shaking
Winner of the 2015 Evelyn Richardson Non-fiction Award
Revised and expanded tenth anniversary edition, featuring new essays and an introduction by Christa Couture.
This is a sex book. It's a book about fucking yourself, fucking someone you love, fucking strangers. It's about saying words like cunt and come, and all manner of perverse verbiage. Mostly, it's about speaking honestly about our bodies and our vulnerability, recognising we're all imperfect, worthy, and desirable.
In this ten year anniversary edition of Hot, Wet & Shaking, Kaleigh Traceβdisabled, queer, sex therapistβchronicles her journey from ignorance to bliss as she shamelessly discusses her sexual exploits and bodily negotiations. Trace's memoirs and essays generously welcome the reader into her world, modelling a humour and radical self-acceptance that can teach us all how to talk about sex, and then some.

About the Author
Kaleigh Trace lives in Toronto but dreams of Nova Scotia. Like many writers, she is pulled toward the immutable language of the coastline. Like many therapists, she finds solace in the ocean.
Kaleigh's written work can be found in The Coast, No More Potlucks, Shameless Magazine, The Huffington Post and on CBC Radio. Her first book, Hot, Wet, and Shaking: How I Learned to Talk about Sex was published by Invisible Publishing in 2014 and won the Evelyn Richardson Non-Fiction Award.
Kaleigh's therapeutic work centres on the certain truth that our intimate relationships are sites of healing. As a couple's therapist, Kaleigh has witnessed the transformative power of compassionate love, and her practice promotes this ethic.
Kaleigh has a Masters of Science in Couple's and Family Therapy and passable punch-needling skills. As a queer, disabled femme, Kaleigh is always curious about your face care routine. Talk to her about your moisturizer.
