She had to self-publish it because, she&#8217;s said, the photos included were &#8220;full color and full nasty&#8221;. There&#8217;s several nudes of Lisa when she was performimg on stage in bars in her twenties or early thirties and even one graphic pink spread shot from when she was at some hapless but lucky venue with her French then-husband Costes (her first of three). Really pushing the legal limits of the First Amendment with that one. But that&#8217;s Lisa. She&#8217;s good at pushing the limits.<\/p>\n<p>I was following her ordeal getting this book to a printer on her Facebook page and it was one turn down after another. She kept at it though, and her perseverance paid off. This will be a fun one to review. Sorry this isn&#8217;t the review for it, yet, just an announcement for it. Watch out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Below is a photo of a fan of Lisa&#8217;s with her copy of SUCKDOG: A RUCKUS found on Lisa&#8217;s Facebook page. Lisa had asked everyone to post a naked selfie with her book after they purchased it. And they DID. Many many did.
