“Did Kate Winslet make me gay?” “How do you know you’re not fucking up your kids?” “Does living a lie actually make you sick?” These are just a few of the conundrums Suzi Ruffell unpacks in her brilliant new book, Am I Having Fun Now? Anxiety, Applause And Life’s Big Questions, Answered.
You probably already know Suzi from her acclaimed stand-up and hilarious appearances on TV shows like Live At The Apollo and Mock The Week. She is also a prolific podcaster, so perhaps you subscribe to OUT With Suzi Ruffell, Like Minded Friends with Tom Allen or Big Kick Energy with Maisie Adam. Well, now is your chance to get to know her on a whole new level with the publication of her warm, witty and fantastically honest memoir. When I speak to the debut author, she’s in Brighton, in the house she shares with her wife Alice and their daughter, nicknamed Peach.
