A book on a table, the cover reads The Dad Rock That Made Me a Woman by Niko Stratis
My book officially releases one week from today. Extremely grateful for everyone who has pre-ordered, posted about it, shared, etc. it helps so, so much.
For a debut, these early numbers can change everything. They can help me get future work, they can help the book find an audience and be seen.
And now that the entire season is out (We gave you the weekend to binge after all) We'll have a piece—or two—coming out to wrap it all up!

"There's a great episode of Girls5eva where they realize how oversexualized their lyrics and videos were—but in the '00s I wasn't concerned with that when listening to my fav girl groups. I just wanted my parents to let me buy butterfly tops & hair clips"

"For years beyond adolescence, I tucked my feelings away. It wasn’t comfortable and it didn’t serve me, it was just…a habit."
This week over on Substack I used "Inside Out" to chat through a week filled with some feelings that were hard to overcome.
