The Paper Ecdysiast: Even Before the Pegassist: Ultra Pony Roller Derby
http://thepaperecdysiast.blogspot.com/2012/11/even-before-pegassist-ultra-pony-roller.html
Monday, 19 November 2012. Even Before the Pegassist: Ultra Pony Roller Derby. Early on in my blogging, a Facebook friend got very excited about a post-related status, that is, until he realized I had typed "roller derby", not "roller Derpy" in reference to one of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic's characters, Derpy Hooves. In turn, this term is not to be confused with Roller Derp. Sometimes crossed serendipitous paths. Of the Canberra Roller Derby League and Team Australia 2011. I point out this 23-se...

The Paper Ecdysiast: June 2012
http://thepaperecdysiast.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, 28 June 2012. The Rules: For Derby, Not Dating. But the living experience of derby is based on the foundation of the rules. Rules that every skater should be familiar with, beyond the basics. Knowing the rules allows us to play smarter and have a potentially valid reason when calling a ref an incompetent jack-ass (as occasionally does happen). A standard rule-set and equal familiarity with it is what can let a bout occur between any. So, how do we address this gap? Monday, 25 June 2012. One of ...

Monday, 23 July 2012. Glitter, Glitter, Gone (For Now): Brief Blog Hiatus. Having recently survived a bout sign-making party, I am still getting glitter off of me, despite multiple showers and what I would describe as intense scrubbing. I must tender my apologies to Guelph's Royal City Rollergirls. As any terrible signs are mine. I considered blaming our Juniors, but they have more style than that. In the mean time, read this amazing size-acceptance post. See you in August! Monday, 16 July 2012. A roller...

Tuesday, 17 September 2013. Flat Track Side-Tracked: My Other Life and Blog. There's been long term radio silence on this blog, largely due to a busy school schedule, a new puppy and very little skate time. Also, I have another blog. But we'll get to that.
