Small-ish update - excited to move from long-term freelance to a full-time staff writer for @SBJ. Not much changes coverage-wise, with LOTS of Paris stories coming. But a big deal for me personally, and it gives me a chance to branch to other sports later. So very happy today.

This is part of a larger effort across our @SBJ newsroom to add to our women's sports coverage. We'll have a monthly column in the magazine and dedicated SBJ Live series, coming soon!.

@SBJ This will be focused on women's sports, which is different than women *in* sports. A good test - are women playing on the field, court, ice, etc? We want those business stories. Is a woman working in a men's league? We love that for them, but that's not for this newsletter.

@SBJ We'll be reporting on the news, trends and opportunities in women's sports. This is the fastest-growing segment of our industry, and we're going to capture that growth, investment and the continuing issues and barriers unique to women's sports.

🚨 Big news 🚨. We're launching a women's sports newsletter!. @SBJ subscribers can find it in their inboxes every other Tuesday, starting May 13. I am beyond excited to spearhead this effort, but it's going to leverage the expertise across our newsroom. 🧵.
