    From the cock she lovingly refers to as “Jaguar” to the flouncy 80’s dresses and feathered hair, Holly Lorka has shared a lot on the BedPost Confessions stage. But how much do you actually know about her day job? Well, you're about to get schooled in “Hotter, More Intensive Care.” Holly Lorka is a writer, storyteller, and retired standup comedian whose work has been included in several anthologies and podcasts, including Dan Savage’s Hot Mic. Her stories of gender, sex, and shame have earned her a following in Austin, Texas, where she lives and works as an ICU nurse and super sharp wedding officiant. "Handsome" is her first book, and she’s a little nervous about her dad reading it.Follow Holly:https://hollylorka.comhttps://www.instagram.com/holly_lorka/Holly on HuffPostHolly's book Handsome: Stories of an Awkward Girl Boy HumanSupport and Follow BedPost Confessions:https://bedpostconfessions.com/https://www.instagram.com/bedpostconfessions/https://bedpostconfessions.com/swagDigital Show Tickets and Information
