You’re probably going to laugh at me…
So many of you know—and if you don’t know, then go read the blurb about it—that Sushi for One? is about Lex Sakai, who’s a volleyball player.
Well, my husband and I played volleyball for years. In fact, I’d still be playing if I hadn’t torn my ACL twice. (Yeah, I learned my lesson, finally.)
Captain Caffeine is still playing co-ed volleyball in the Nikkei Volleyball League (Lex’s league in the book!) and needed a new ball. Well, guess what he suggested we do?



Now is this marketing or what?! My Marketing Director will be proud.
Any ideas you guys can think of that I should do to market this book without being a used car salesman about it?

And I think you should market your book in any way you can or any way you want to. I don't think you'll be coming across as a used car salesman because you're not pushing, your marketing, just letting the folks know that it's out there on the shelves. (Well, gonna be out there.)
NASCAR ain't got nothin' on us!!! :-)

I can just see my hubby when I'm published. He'll probably go out and buy cowboy hats or something and hand them out with my books. LOL! Now that's an idea for me. Where's my pen and paper?
My fledging marketing mind is spinning now since my series is about baseball players. I'd love to hear more about how you're marketing or how much you're marketing to women who love sports. We're a fast-growing market, for sure.
I think it says 1. Female 2. Asian and 3. Stylish flair, which are elements of Asian Chick Lit, no?
Of course, you'd have to find a place that makes it in a wide selection of sizes, so your FAT readers, like moi, could win, too. :D
Or a delivery of a meal of sushi enough for ONE.
