  The first comprehensive guide designed to help college, high school, and youth athletes navigate the name, image, and likeness (NIL) rights they've gained since 2021, The Athlete's NIL Playbook walks listeners through NIL rules, opportunities, and red flags, showing them how to build a personal brand, find deals, reach out to companies, and negotiate terms. Along with real-life examples, exercises, and pitch templates, this book includes case studies from college and high school athletes who have successfully navigated this burgeoning market: the Cavinder Twins, Olivia Dunne, Travis Hunter, Chase Griffin, Emily Cole, and many more. 
   
   
   
  Written by Kristi Dosh, a seasoned sports business reporter and founder of a nationally-recognized news platform covering the business of college sports, this book covers aspects of NIL including the types of opportunities available (social media marketing, lessons, camps/clinics, merchandise, personal appearances, and more); whether you need an agent or not, and how to find the right one if you do; and working with third parties like collectives and marketplaces and protecting/registering your own intellectual property.

  The Race of Truth

  Being the fastest cyclist in the world at the start line means nothing if your mind isn't strong enough to get you to the finish line 
   
  In 2018, Leigh Timmis became the fastest person to cycle across Europe - in just 16 days, 10 hours and 45 minutes - breaking the previous world record by an astonishing 8 days and 17 hours. But when he set out to break the record, Leigh wasn't just trying to conquer the road. 
   
  As he prepared his body for this ultra-endurance world record attempt, Leigh realized that he would have to confront deeper problems to make it to the finish line. Although test results showed that he already had the physical ability of an elite athlete, something was holding him back: his troubled mind. 
   
  With the support of psychologists and sports science experts, Leigh confronted the past that had left him with vulnerabilities he would need to understand and overcome in the pursuit of performance. Then, cycling for 14 hours a day, from the west coast of Portugal to the edge of Siberia, he embarked on far more than just a physical journey. 
   
  The Race of Truth is the remarkable true story of personal transformation against the clock, and the astonishing feats we can accomplish when we face up to our deepest fears.

  Inhabiting a landscape, walking a landscape, writing a place and time. 
  Linda Cracknell is a writer of place and nature who believes in being alert, observing, and writing from the particulars of each experience. Engaging bodily with her writing, she is someone for whom getting mud on her boots, sleeping high up in the hills, or being slapped by salt water can all be part of her process. She follows Susan Sontag's advice to “Love words, agonize over sentences and pay attention to the world.”  
  In this varied collection of essays, Linda backpacks on a small island that is connected to the mainland at low tide, musing on the nineteenth-century Scottish writer whose character was shipwrecked there. She hikes the wooded mountain trail close to her home in winter snow—a place she is intimately familiar with in all weathers and seasons—and she retraces the steps of a multiday hike made almost seven decades after her parents trod the route together. She explores her inspirations, in nature and from other artists and their work.  
  Reading this collection will open your eyes to the world around you and how you can observe, take note, and later commit those notes and memories to written pieces that will evoke the place and time.
