About the Author

Ilana Long first heard about pickleball when her sporty friend confessed that she was addicted to a game that was \"like ping-pong but standing on the table.\" Shortly after, Long joined the pickleball craze despite her utter lack of hand-eye coordination. A stand-up and sketch comedy writer and actor, Long studied improv and performed at The Second City in Chicago. She is the author of the picture book, Ziggy's Big Idea, and her essays appear in multiple books in the Chicken Soup for the Soul series.
