Do a Powerbomb

by Daniel Warren Johnson

Daniel Warren Johnson weaves the heartbreaking, emotionally-charged, coming-of-age tale of one girl grappling with grief, imposter syndrome, and the grit it takes to survive amongst a thunderdome of high-stakes wrestlemania competition.

Lona Steelrose wants to be a pro-wrestler, but she’s living under the shadow of her mother, the best to ever do it. Everything changes when a wrestling obsessed necromancer asks her to join the grandest pro-wrestling tournament of all time, which is also the most dangerous!
