The Bramobile Hits the Road!
Ride along as this year's funniest book sweeps the nation
Events for our hilarious women's humor book, Sand in My Bra and Other Misadventures, have been standing-room only, and great reviews are pouring in from all over North America. The book is rocketing out the door at a faster clip than anything we've ever published, so we're sending the "Mistress of Misadventure," editor Jennifer Leo, on a cross-country tour of events and speaking engagements. Follow her daily blog as she writes from the road.
Jen will hit the road soon in her "Sand in My Bra pink" Bramobile to make new friends, meet curious onlookers, and discover funny new material for a sequel. The tour will start on the West Coast on September 4 and migrate east through Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Illinois—all the way to the National Book Festival in Washington, D.C. on October 4. The terminus will be Atlanta, Georgia where Raj Khadka, our Asia editor and his wife Prakriti are in need of wheels for their Ph.D. stint at Emory University.
Donate your bra and win 10 FREE AUTOGRAPHED COPIESLet's fill the backseat with…you guessed it, bras! Each town/bookstore/business that puts a bra in the Bramobile will get their picture posted on the daily blog that's covering the tour. All bras will be entered in a November 1 drawing for ten free autographed books and ten Travelers' Tales t-shirts-a value of $300. Take a look at Jen's route, and email unhooked@sandinmybra.com at least a day in advance to set up a bra deposit. The winner will be announced on TravelersTales.com on November 1st, and in our November newsletter. If you're not signed up, you can do that here.

"Bursting with exuberant candor and crackling humor, Sand in My Bra is sure to leave readers feeling that to not have an adventure to remember is a great loss indeed....will definitely light a fire under the behinds of, as the dedication states, 'all the women who sit at home or behind their desks bitching that they never get to go anywhere.'" —Publishers Weekly
