So grateful for this chat with wonderful Meryl who talked so openly about her personal growth, Olympic experiences, and finding new fulfillment, freedom & purpose in life 💫
ETA: After the 33-minute mark, Meryl reveals she has "been exploring writing and ... I wrote a couple of children's books throughout quarantine..." The first one is being illustrated now and "will hopefully be out in a couple months." :)

Cross-posting this article by Brandon Penny (April 20) from the Figure Skating in Harlem thread in GSD:
Davis' favorite memory from the roughly 10 galas she has witnessed was the first time she saw a spoken-word performance by the FSH students.
"I realized then that I was seeing the impact of what they were learning on the ice being shown off the ice as well," Davis explained. "That was when the dots really connected for me – seeing that spoken-word performance, seeing the confidence, seeing the sense of community among the participants, seeing the light in their eyes as they were delivering this performance that meant so much to them."
Figure Skating in Detroit will have its own inaugural virtual Celebration of Youth gala on May 13.

Local Detroit (WXYZ channel 7) news story on Meryl's new book: https://twitter.com/BradGalli/status/1392966794021834753

Meryl & her book are featured in Sweet Laurel Bakery's blog today:
This recipe for Chamomile Moon Cookies was inspired by our friend Meryl Davis and her beautiful new children’s book, “Moon Walk”. We were so excited when she approached us about collaborating, and it was a fun challenge to develop a recipe that captured the essence of her heartwarming story. These Moon Cookies are so simple to make. A perfect parent/child activity and a wonderfully calming treat to enjoy before bed with some milk or a cup of tea.
Meryl will participate in an IG Live on Friday 5/14 at noon Pacific time to bake these cookies (ETA link to watch): https://www.instagram.com/tv/CO3aTronwZM/

Congrats to Meryl on her children's book, but I really wish she and Charlie could've collaborated on a book about their skating career as well as their experiences on Dancing With The Stars. Seems like a missed opportunity, but perhaps the opportunity never presented itself.

Moon Walk: Forever by Your Side, Davis' illustrated children's book published in April, is the first, Davis hopes, of more books to come.

"With the quiet that came with the pandemic, I really realized how much I enjoy writing and what a passion it is for me," she tells PEOPLE.

Davis, 34, has long loved language and enjoyed writing, with a penchant for what she calls "these little poems." But it wasn't until the social distancing required by the spread of COVID-19 last year that she took stock of the project and decided to pursue it.

Meryl's Instagram Live chat about the Grand Prix season with Nick McCarvel and Elladj Balde on Oct. 28, 2021: https://www.instagram.com/tv/CVlOqr6JmBK/

Charlie has been doing ice dance commentary with Tanith for the Olympic Channel - broadcast schedule is posted in the TV Alerts forum: https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/th...dule-for-2021-2022.108714/page-3#post-6110943
I caught the Olympic Channel replay of GP Italia's RD last night. Wow and yes! for Tanith and Charlie's unexpected, extended condemnation of homophobia against Cizeron and in skating. Charlie was savage in calling out a 'certain Russian coach's' remarks as pure 'bigotry masquerading as artistic critique.' :kickass:
Kristi Yamaguchi did an IG Live last week with Meryl & E.L. Shen for Kristi's Book Club Challenge: https://www.instagram.com/tv/CWGo2WoJgo9/

So glad to see and hear about the choices Meryl and Charlie are making. There is another thread about Charlie's news that he along with Tanith and Greg Zuerlein are opening Michigan Ice Dance Academy! Exciting new direction for them! Wishing them all success!
