All right! That's more my speed (no pun intended) - sign me up for the Queens of Pain!

Love those names,too. "Miss Snark" amost sounds warm and fuzzy compared to my favs "Anne Phetamean" and "Lady Batterly."
Do they even have stiletto roller skates?
Aren't stilleto skates outlawed?
I just finished writing a really serious chapter. Then I read this stuff and fall on the floor laughing. How do you find these things?
Unfortunately, I gotta go with the girl band thing; I can't skate worth crizap. Soooo, see you at band camp?
You go, girl. Put on your short shorts and roll right on over. Better yet, Snark all over 'em.

where creative minds meet creative people
Hey, count me in. My junior high days are finally going to pay off! If I combine my competitive side with my love for a really good fight, there's no doubt in my mind that I could pull this off. Damn the bad knee, the injured back, and the fact that my feet are shot. I'm all over this.
I'm still laughing about Carmen Monoxide. That's a great pulp scifi name if I ever heard one. I can't wait for someone to come up with La Snark's roller derby name.
Y'mean like this?
Miss Snark -
Alison at Bleak House Books (Mel Ignant, when she's on eight wheels) would love to take you skating -- you can find her on the track with the Unholy Rollers of Madison's derby league, the Mad Rollin' Dolls. (madrollindolls.com)
I can skate but I like having front teeth, so I'll bow out. Can't play the guitar or drums so I'll stick with creative writing. Fat butt syndrome is the worst danger there.
You take me back to the days of the Bay City Bombers and Joni Weston. Also, once, when I almost got into a fistfight at a Roller Derby match. It was such a lovely day. I met my boyfriend Bruno there. He was the one that pulled me back by tugging on my pony tail.
No Staten Island team?
We'll try a few names
Trolley Trash?
Belinda Backhand?
Suzie Stilletto?
Rude Ruth?
Cutty Remarke?
Rejecta Upages?
OK, I can't top the last one.
But how will you ever put wheels on your high heels?
If neither the Tina Turner nor this thing works out, maybe you could try finding an author who claims to be the descendent of Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene and then writes a fictional book based on her own personal experiences ;)
Miss Snark, I will permit you to use the character name I came up with for one of my short stories: Gory Hallelujah. ;)
Use it in good health!
Maybe you'll meet a few good writers...I skate as Audrey Rugburn with the Denver Roller Dolls and moonlight as a starving writer. Or maybe I'm a writer who moonlights as a roller derby queen. Who knows...nice to see derby getting a shout from the Queen of the Snarks - you'd fit right in!
