About Kanefabe

Tell stories. Watch silly videos. Ask questions. And try to do some good.

I write about sports and pro wrestling. I write about these topics to explore and try to understand what I am seeing and hearing and experiencing.

Maybe that's why you're reading about these topics. And maybe these connections and shared experiences help us understand the world a little better.

Hopefully we can have some fun, too.

Do I really think all of that is possible with sports and pro wrestling?

I sure do. If you agree, then maybe this is a place for you.

The Kanefabe blog is mostly about pro wrestling. I’m especially interested in how wrestling overlaps with sports and other areas of our lives.

The Ongoing Attempts newsletter is mostly about baseball. I write about some other sports, too, especially in the off-season.

I've also got collections of essays available. You can click here to see the full list of published collections.

The money stuff

You can read the flagship content on Kanefabe.com for free, no need to sign up. There is also a free membership if you want to receive my weekly newsletter in your inbox and stay in the loop.

I offer a paid membership for $4 a month or $40 a year. The paid membership includes premium content each month. It also includes occasional promotions or discounts for my four annual collections of essays.

There is a free trial so you can decide if a paid membership is the right fit for you.

It's just me here, so you'll be supporting an independent writer if you sign up for a paid membership.

I know there are a lot of great writers and creators competing for your time and subscription dollars. It might be that you take a look at what I have to offer and decide that the paid option isn't for you. That’s OK.

Whether you just read occasionally, stick with a free membership, or sign up for a paid membership, I‘m glad you’re here.
