Echols: ‘Sports may be more beneficial ... than ever before’
Candace Echols
Candace Echols writes whatever she notices as she goes about her daily life. Living that way has landed her bylines in National Geographic, Garden and Gun, The Gospel Coalition, Southern Living, golf.com, Cowboys and Indians, Common Good, Risen Motherhood, and others. Someday, she hopes to have a writing cottage in Oxford, England or Oxford, Mississippi; either will be just fine. Candace and her husband live with their children in Midtown Memphis.
“For a decent shot at victory, the team needs to be whole. ... Perhaps the entire city of Memphis could use a dose of this lesson right now.”
