My Side Piece was created by Jamie McCormick, a Toronto-based essayist, sports professional, and published children’s author who loves pop divas, memes, and the colour pink. My Side Piece is a bi-weekly newsletter of personal essays focused on subjects that interest her beyond her day-to-day work. From lizards to sex work, to Britney Spears' conservatorship, you can count on Jamie to be the armchair expert you didn't know you needed in your inbox. And, after all, who doesn't like a little fun on the side?
