The triumphant memoir from a prolific author, actor, and producer. A story of wheels, ambition, defeat, and the kind of comeback that only happens when you refuse to stop rolling.
Rise
Fall
Triumph
Competitive roller skating is one of the most demanding and least recognized athletic pursuits in the world. The precision of figure skating, the speed of track racing, the artistry of dance, all on eight wheels with no ice to blame when you fall.
This memoir captures the full arc: the early obsession that turned into competitive fire, the climb through ranks most people don't know exist, the devastating fall that threatened to end everything, and the triumphant return that rewrote the story.
Written by a prolific author who has spent a career putting other stories into words, this is the one that demanded to be told in the first person. Raw, honest, and relentlessly forward-moving.
From first wheels to competition floors. The obsessive dedication that turns a hobby into a calling, and a calling into an identity. Every early morning practice, every bruise, every small victory that built something bigger.
The moment the floor drops. When the thing you built your world around threatens to collapse, and you have to decide whether to walk away or keep rolling. The hardest chapter to write, and the most important to read.
Not a Hollywood ending. Something better: a real one. The slow, stubborn refusal to let the fall be the final act. Proof that the best comebacks aren't dramatic. They're daily.
The first competitive roller skating memoir ever written. Coming to Barnes & Noble, from an author who's been waiting 48 books to tell this story.
