I wrote about the power of anonymous notes for CrimeReads using a true story from my hometown that will have you checking the locks. crimereads.com/elizabeth-stap…

Processing the email from college that encourages us to let out student solve his own problems, but also to gift him a semester-long laundry service.

As a lifelong public radio listener & someone who has seen Wait Wait Don't Tell Me live, having NPR's Baum on Books review The Snap--in that signature cadence!--will have me geeking out for at least the rest of the day. Thank you! WSHU Public Radio #npr wshu.org/podcast/baum-o…

The absolute epitome of a girl’s girl. NO ONE is happier to see others succeed than Katie Strang .

Here are the best debuts! crimereads.com/the-best-debut…

Pro tip: get your children invested in football by promising them one M&M every time Syracuse scores.

Everyone makes youthful mistakes, but these books are about the ones that can ruin your life. (Elizabeth Staple) buff.ly/3Z7A4aP

You only make the mistake of singing while filming the concert video once.

I deeply love the idea behind this podcast, which is instantly recognizable to female sports fans. A friend and I were once quizzed about walk-ons WHILE sleeping outside in Syracuse, in March, for Final Four tickets. I mean—Sir. I’ll share the link once it’s up!

Love football? (✅) And thrillers? (✅) It’s a thriller set in the world of football! Loved The Snap, the debut novel by ⁦Elizabeth Staple⁩, who some of us remember from her former life in NFL PR. Read it between games this weekend. Congrats!

Happy Friday!! Episode 9 with Elizabeth Staple is here 📚🏈 We had SUCH an amazing conversation about her new book and all about her experience working in the NFL, I think you’ll love both her book The Snap, and this latest episode! open.spotify.com/episode/7DQFnB…

A most ridiculous annual event: Our third emo/punk NHL preview. Tried to find bands from the same area as all 32 teams. Not totally successful, but still was a fun time putting this playlist together. Give it a read and a listen! nytimes.com/athletic/57672…

Central NY peeps — head over to Liverpool today to get your copy of The Snap (set in Syracuse) by Elizabeth Staple!

Well, here we are again.

My six-year-old: “When I grow up, can I be an astronaut?” Me: “You can be anything you want.” “What about a murderer?” “…No.” “Can I be a mom AND an astronaut?” Back to yes.

Made the mistake of asking @StapeAthletic if he’s ever seen anything like this and now I’m watching a lot of low-resolution hockey clips.

K-2 girls lacrosse practice: “Team One, what’s your team name?” “The Dolphins!!” “Ok, Team Two, what’s your team name?” “Also the Dolphins!!”
