Quirkyalone: A Manifesto for Uncompromising Romantics

(HarperOne)

Quirkyalone: “A person who enjoys being single (but is not opposed to being in a relationship) and generally prefers to be alone rather than date for the sake of being in a couple.”

My first book Quirkyalone: A Manifesto for Uncompromising Romantics was ripped from my heart, and turned into an underground sensation that built a cult following.

“Of all of the books that I’ve read, Quirkyalone has definitely been one of the most important books for affirming my journey and cultivating self-acceptance. I’ve picked it up at many different moments in my life and it always brings so much wisdom and joy. So thank you for all that you’ve created, because it’s truly a gift!”–Caroline Leamon, Montreal

“Cagen’s up to something that could be as important for women (and men) as The Feminine Mystique was years ago…”
— Barbara Ehrenreich, author of Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America

Cagen is not against setups or dating…She is emphatically not against sex. Rather, she is ‘anti dull relationship.’”
— New York Times Sunday Styles section

Wet 

Memoir

Sasha is currently at work on a memoir called Wet, which tells the story of how she healed deep-seated shame, a result of childhood trauma, and worked through unhealthy patterns of not speaking up or feeling worthy, through connecting with her body and her sensuality in South America. 

Wet is a story of healing through listening to the body.
