Hi, are you looking to avoid life and get lost in a YouTube spiral? Can we recommend heading to Tanya Hennessy’s channel? Her videos are funny, real and relatable AF!
And now you can find all that comedy in book form, with the release of her debut book Am I Doing This Right?. It’s the encyclopedia of life lessons, from A is for Awkward, to B is for Bodies, right through to V is for Viral and Z is for, well, ZZZZ. Tanya has compiled an alphabet of hilarious, horrible, humbling and happy experiences that will make you laugh, cry and ultimately leave you feeling less alone in this complicated world.
Tanya was once a local radio star in Toowoomba, which means we can claim her, and any and all success she has. She’s returning to us as part of her book tour and will be available for a meet and greet this Friday 15 June, at 12.30pm at Grand Central. Grab a copy of Am I Doing This Right from Dymocks and then scoot over to outside Kmart to meet her and get your book signed. All the info on the event is on Facebook.
Get ready for the event by rewatching our top five fave Tanya vids on YouTube.

“I can’t see out of my right eye because I think I’ve got an infection from the mascara.”
