Every few months I consider joining a league and commencing training, but every time I push it back again, convinced that I’ll make a fool of myself. When I moved to London, I attended some bouts and am still a loyal follower of lots of derby accounts on social media. ![]() ![]() ![]() I didn’t know just how much I missed this series (and Mare’s sass) until this collection of short stories.

Davidson made it clear in his last communication that the cabin outpost was at our disposal as long as we needed, but I didn’t even broach the subject with the rest of my family. Of course, we could stay for the season if we wanted.

I have finished listening to a handful of books in the last month, and I’m going to be sharing the first few lines of the story I’m currently listening to. Audiobooks have been great for me recently.
