One of my favorite parts of the article is where he talks about how he feels about playing hockey while Jewish and about how important it is. It actually echoes how feel when I as a jewish writer write a jewish hockey or hockey adjacent romance.

It is the wildest coincidence ever that an interview where a hockey player is the most open he's *ever* been about his Jewish identity is released on the same day the book I wrote about the need to have more positive Jewish rep in hockey is free everywhere?

In 175 B. C., an insecure, despotic ruler came to power. He was narcissistic and known for a level of extravagance and display that bordered on the bizarre. Despite his occasional ability to captivate his subjects by appearing gracious, he was said to have, in his heart, a cruel tyrant’s contempt for his subjects. Political positions under him were easily bought; he installed unqualified cronies in high positions and quickly turned on one if another offered him more money for the same job. He was quick to anger, nicknamed β€œthe madman,” and it wasn’t long into his reign that he began curtailing civil liberties, restricting the freedom of religion, and pillaging his subjects’ resources for his own profit.

In December of 2016, I wrote a piece about what the Hanukah story teaches us about the incoming Trump Administration.

I don't think it's any less relevant now than it was then, honestly.

So the fun wild fact is that my next book is inspired by an article I read in an old sports blog attached to the Washington post. The writer of the article is on a different beat, no longer covering the capitals, but I told him about the book and he has a copy:)
