Hey Hey Hey Hot Boxers! This week we sit down with Auntie Matter aka Elizabeth Holden from Madison Roller Derby! We talk about the YA Novel Aunty wrote "Mighty Millie Novak" that will be coming out August 2024! Auntie's website: elizabeth-holden.com Mighty Millie Novak : elizabeth-holden.com/millie links to purchase the book at various retailers, and a link to the pre-order swag form to get the trading cards--trading cards available until May 16. Auntie's Instagram account: @ElizabethH_WIAuntie's email: elizabeth.holden.author@gmail.comBook purchasing info for derby leagues: If derby leagues want to sell copies of Mighty Millie Novak (as a fundraiser, as a team book club, as general merch, etc.) they can purchase a box of 13 copies (or more, of course :-) ) for a 46% discount (and free shipping) and then sell them at whatever price they'd like, to raise money for their league. (for reference, the book retails for 14.99 and with this discount it would be $8.10, so that would be a profit of $6.89 per book) If your league is interested in doing this, contact Auntie at her email address (elizabeth.holden.author@gmail.com) and she can put you in touch with the person at the publisher who is handling this.  madisonrollerderby.orgX-Files podcast: wewanttobelievepod.com and @wewanttobelievepod on Instagram
