Out of My Scull offers a unique perspective into the world of rowing. It's not a racing tale or a technical manual. Instead, it's the story of a woman's quest for the perfect recreational sport at age 50, leading her to the sliding seat of a scull where she found joy for 25 years. She tells her story of joining a rowing center, learning to row, and becoming incomparably smitten. It is part instructional manual for those unfamiliar with the sport and its sometimes-hilarious lingo and part exposure to the crazy challenges that may come along with it.

Finding Me: From Imposter to Icon is the raw, unfiltered story of how I went from pretending to be someone else to becoming a two-time Photographer of the Year.

More than a memoir about paintball or photography, this is a journey of identity, resilience, and discovering what happens when you stop living for others and start living for yourself.

Myron Cope was the color commentator for Pittsburgh Steelers radio broadcasts from 1970 to 2005, the second-longest-serving team broadcaster in NFL history.

Cope helped forge the unbreakable bond between the city of Pittsburgh and its football team.
