I want to extend a big welcome to all the Mormon Mommy Writers Readers who are visiting this blog today. Mmmwah! Glad to see you. Grab a piece of candy, pop it in your mouth and join the sugar rush going on over here day in and day out.
Over on Mormon Mommy Writers my awesome friend (who writes like a DREAM) Megan Oliphant has interviewed me about writing and about my new upcoming book Big in Japan, how it came to be, and a little bit about what it was like to get inside the head of a six-foot-six hefty blond sumo wrestler--even though I'm a short brunette who NEVER goes out in just a diaper. It was a really fun interview to do.
And now, for the BEST part. Along with her interview, there is (drumroll, please) a GIVEAWAY. I know how we all love a giveaway. Follow the rules posted on MMW, and you can enter to win a selection of awesome Japanese candies AND a signed copy of Big in Japan as soon as it is released.
COOOOL!
And when will that be, you ask? I got an email from Jolly Fish Press, my publisher, and they have moved up the release date from fall to JULY 21st!
Yee haw. The world has barely 6 months left to wait to read its very first (and will it be a last and only as well? We'll see!) sumo wrestler love story!
Here's the blurb I like to share, the "elevator pitch," if you will.
24 year-old Buck is a big fat nobody until he goes to Japan and accidentally becomes the first blond sumo wrestler. There he has to win the Emperor's Cup and save the girl.
Now, be honest with yourself. Haven't you always subconsciously been waiting for a story just like this? Haha. Me too.
Go enter! Win!
Jennifer,Too funny. I am so excited for you about the book, good for you, and your hungry readers. Have to go get a "sugar fix" now. Just won a book on the holidaybloghop, so I'm on a biscuit, as I started saying at some point, instead of, well, you know.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dragonfly! Congrats on the book win. You might win this one too! Hahaha.
ReplyDeleteJennifer, it was awesome having you on MMW! You are welcome to stop by anytime! We will have to have you back in July for sure when your book comes out!
