Sushi for One? (2007)
Will Lex Sakai be able to surrender her "perfect man" list and give Mr. All Wrong a chance?
Lex Sakai's family is big, nosy, and marriage-minded. When her cousin Mariko gets married, Lex will become the oldest single cousin in the clan. And that makes her a moving target for Grandma Sakai, who insists that Lex bring a date to her cousin's wedding.
Of course, Grandma Sakai has some perfect candidates for Lex. Too bad they don't speak English! And Lex herself has used her Bible study class on Ephesians to compile a huge list of traits for the perfect man. But the one man she keeps running into doesn't seem to have a single quality on her list. Aiden Young is not her type. He's not a jock, he's not employed, he's not a Christian, and he has a bad history with Lex's cousin, Trish. It's only when the always-in-control Lex starts to let God take over that all the pieces of this hilarious romance finally fall into place.

I am a loud Asian chick who writes loud Asian chick-lit. My first novel, Sushi for One?, comes out in September 2007. In a previous life I was a biologist researcher, but these days I am surgically attached to my computer, writing full-time. In my spare time, I am a staff worker for my church youth group, and I lead one of the worship teams for Sunday service.
My blog, "Camy's Loft," is just that--a place to put up your feet, relax, and enjoy the read. I ponder frivolous things like dumb dogs (namely, my own), coffee-geek husbands (no resemblance to mine...), the writing journey, Asiana, and anything else that comes to mind. Every Monday and Thursday I have book giveaways, and most Sundays I post a prayer (everyone is welcome to leave a prayer request as a comment or e-mail me with your private request).

Okay, LOVED "Only Uni"!!! I liked it even better than your first book -- It's easier for me to relate to a slightly clumsy, definitely quirky and emotional, man-crazed chick. *grin* -- and can't believe I have to wait until SEPTEMBER for your next one! Again, THANKS for the fun read!

Hey, Camy! Just finished "Sushi for One?" and had to drop by. You've sucked me in! I ordered "Only Uni" immediately and insisted on 2-day shipping. :) Thanks for the fun read! Have a great day.

I'm sending you an invite to my Group Room called, "Home Decorative Expressions". If you would like to find out more information, please accept the invitation or click on my picture. I'd love to tell you all about this new and innovative way of putting encouraging words and Gods Word on our walls. You can even make your own custom saying or put childrens names on the wall. There are so many things you can do! The expressions are beautiful and look as if they have been hand painted. You can use them at home, church, school or a business. You can even advertise on your car! Very inexpensive. Check it out and let me know what you think!
God bless you.

Good morning! I'm posting this on all my friends comments! :) Its a poem of Blessing!! :) .... I wrote it this morning!!
lol...
Poem of blessing:
Dear God,
I pray for my friends and family,
I hope all is well with them,
That they are happy, and content, and safe,
I pray You will do wonders with thier lives,
That You will use them for His ministry, If they accept you.
I pray that no sickness may fall upon them,
If they are sick I pray that they are healed.
Is nothing impossible for the Almighty God?
The Creator of the universe?
I pray that they may be a blessing,
To other people's lives.
But i also pray that their life will be blessed by You,
Even if it might take some time.
For the Your Glory is upon us,
Your spirit is ever near,
In the name of Jesus, God, and the Holy spirit,
I lift up my prayers to you Lord, Amen.
