Just fyi: received an Amazon message stating my copy of Fair Game was delayed and I had to approve the shipment and delay. Hope this means you're selling out but fear it's a discourager for buyers.

Ugh, that sucks. Looking into it. Thanks for the heads up.

Wow thanks for this! So fascinating and I want to read both your books. I’m currently writing a 9-12 fiction book about a girl’s football team as I was trying to find a book for my niece’s birthday and there simply wasn’t anything of the sort!

I remember being at a Bristol city womens game (UK football) last year and behind me weee these blokes who must have been season ticket holders for the men’s team. They were constantly saying things like “wow they’re actually pretty good!” And then eventually decided that their Sunday league amateur team of 30-50 something men would still beat them “because of the physicality” 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️

That's great that you're writing a book for your niece! I'd love to read it. We do need more books about girls kicking ass at sports.

The guys at the Bristol match sound like many of the people I've been hearing from lately, who are quite confident that any man could beat an elite women's team. Okay. I see how important it is for you to believe that. Carry on.
