We have set a goal for ourselves this trip - to formally document our experience here by writing a memoir and (hopefully!) getting it published upon our return.
As our trip has developed we have recorded all the "memoirable" moments in story-form including such titles as "Toilet Flushing 101", "The Deaf leading the Deaf", and "You Know You're a Whitey When..." There will also be illustrations to accompany the stories taken from our nightly drawn memoirs of daily excitements. We even plan to compile a section of photographs that document our time on the Island and with the kids to be included in the center of the book.
We are extremely excited about this endeavor, but we have never published a book before and are therefore unsure of the best way to go about writing the book, getting it published, and promoting awareness for the book and CCCD. If you or anyone you know has any tips for us or any helpful connections as we work on this, please let us know! You can contact us by commenting on this blog or by emailing us at nahgwan@gmail.com.
So be excited about what will "soon come" and keep your eyes peeled for "Talons On the Tin Roof" in bookstores near you!
