Comedian and actress Arden Myrin shares a hilarious and heartfelt memoir about her journey through adulthood and her rise in the comedy scene, all infused with her signature self-deprecating humor. Born from two impulsive decisions—her grandparents married within a day of meeting and her parents tied the knot on a dare—Arden's upbringing was anything but typical. Growing up in Little Compton, Rhode Island, her family life was quirky: her dad lived on sheet cake while her mom directed a Cub Scout Broadway musical. With a population of just over 3,500 and only one general store, Little Compton shaped her unique perspective. At nineteen, Arden moved to Chicago, where she found her comedic voice at ImprovOlympic. After soaking up experiences and cocktails, she landed a role on an NBC sitcom, moving to Los Angeles alone and grappling with the challenges of adulthood. She faced questions about dating, social anxiety, and self-advocacy, all while learning to embrace her worth. From her small-town roots to accidentally kicking Courteney Cox on set, Arden's inspiring and candid narrative illustrates how an unconventional upbringing can be a catalyst for thriving, encouraging readers to embrace their most authentic selves. Shout out to Little Compton!! Woot Woot!!!
