#WWE 's ads aren't just annoying, they negatively impact our ability to escape into a world of pure imagination. In my latest article for The #WorkOfWrestling Substack, I examine the effect of this dynamic on our collective mind.

Here's an excerpt from the first chapter of my book 📕 The #WorkOfWrestling: A Book About Art 🎨, #WrestleSky. My first goal is to get a literary agent. I want it to be a significant text for our community and beyond. I wrote it for the diehard fan, the wrestler, and the casual reader.

I've sent my #book 📕, The #WorkOfWrestling: A Book About Art 🎨 to 2 publishers and 9 agents. Not nearly as many as I need to, but it's a start. I got a positive rejection from one. Silence from the rest. It's currently being read by my mentor, Julia Markus, and a wrestling legend.

Wish me luck!

What would you like to be when you grow up? That question is at the center of this week's #WorkOfWrestling #podcast. It's available for free in Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Give it a listen and let me know what you think. May the Moment of Pop be with you:

The Work Of Wrestling: When We Grow Up
Tim Kail journeys back to his childhood when, in elementary school, he was asked to write down what he wanted to be when he grew up. Inspired by the film As Good As It Gets, he wrote down that he wanted to be a writer who lived in New York. In reflecting upon that goal, he realized how he managed to make it not far off the mark. He explores how he hasn't yet attained what he initally meant in writing that goal down, but how he's gotten "on the board" even if he didn't hit a bullseye. He then examines what he'd write down today, and why he's setting his sights high, becoming a bestselling author who no longer needs a day job by the time he's fifty. And he encourages you to do the same, no matter your age, in what is an uplifting episode. Subscribe to his Substack at . Get a tee-shirt at . Thank you for listening!
