Diana Kirk is every girlfriend’s adult version of the sneaky kid at school enticing rosy-faced innocents to just “take a drag” from her clove cigarette. And don’t you want to because it feels oh...so...good to be bad? Licking Flames: Takes of a Half-Assed Hussy offers a strong woman’s spin on contemporary life. Kirk will make you gasp and buckle over in this collection of brash and adventurous essays about travel abroad, friendships, family, sex, and working in a man’s world, where Kirk makes and breaks her own rules.

"Diana Kirk is an author who exudes personality. She shares her raw unfiltered story with bite, yet layers of compassion and vulnerability of life in the Pacific Northwest and around the world. Licking Flames is like taking a swig of good unpasteurized apple cider vinegar." ~ Portland Book Review

"Licking Flames is like watching Courtney Love sing ‘My Way.’ At turns funny and biting, Kirk offers a sharp exploration into what it means to be a bold woman in a world built by and for men." ~ Ariel Gore, author of End of Eve

"Diana Kirk doesn’t give a shit what anyone thinks about her, and that’s why her writing is so appealing." ~ The Psychology of It
