Exciting news, friends! My debut memoir, "Don't Let Them Eat the Baby: Why Roller Derby is the Greatest Sport Never Sold" is finally out for pre-sale on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Powell's! a.co/d/1DhjGad
Well, hey, everyone! It's been a minute, but I have some good things happening with my memoir. We're nearly 3/4 funded on my debut memoir on Portland, Oregon's Banana Pitch Press. Check out our @Kickstarter kickstarter.com/projects/ban…
Hands down Serrano won this fight. Taylor spent more time mashing her braids into Serrano’s cut than she did actually fighting 🤷🏻♀️ However…Serrano, I need your jersey asap because you made a new fan last night ✌🏻
Spoiler: #rollerderby is in this book and you’re gonna want to read it ✌🏻
My upcoming book “The Fast Track: Inside the surging Business of Women’s Sports” is available for preorder on Amazon amazon.co.uk/Fast-Track-Insi…
I heard a woman on TikTok say that a country where rights are on the line every four years isn't actually a democracy. The stakes are very, very high right now.
Excited to finally have this little piece drop about a Philadelphia salvaging legend ✌🏻heritagelocal.org/posts/amer…

Listening to a podcast about nutrition for endurance runners and the first section is called "eat everything." I think I may have found my people.
Listen, this whole hullabaloo about @KamalaHarris eating a bag of Doritos when she's depressed is just so relatable that it's like a Bat-Signal for us GenX women. Honestly. Like, I've heard the call. It's me, I'm here.
16 y/o: You know what mom? You’re right.
Me: [slowly turns head] Oh?
16 y/o: Good songs are about love. *Great* songs are about limerence.

Your politics aside, you need to understand that my 78-year-old mother--the first woman in her family to hold a full-time job and open her own bank account--legitimately thought she would not live to see another woman presidential candidate in her lifetime.
I have just discovered that my stepson and his girlfriend refer to me as "Girl Boss" and I don't think I've ever been this flattered by anything in my entire life.
If I had a time machine, I'd go back to Tuesday and thank past me for packing a half dozen Axat croissants in my checked bag. Not all heroes wear capes.

I have graduated from "Ma'am" to "Mami" at my corner bodega and I'm feeling pretty accomplished today.
In my next life, I wish to be born as the woman walking past me, outside the Amtrak dining car, with a tray full of hot dogs and several Stella Artois. She got it right.
