Carol D. Marsh liked an excerpt from Nowhere Else I Want to Be
She was right. Very quickly, so as not to give my mind or stomach or taste buds a chance to protest, I threw the chitlin into my mouth, gave a couple of ineffectual chews, and swallowed it determinedly – gagged it down was how I described it to Tim, later that evening.

Carol D. Marsh sent an update for Nowhere Else I Want to Be

Thanks to all of you, we had great momentum in September: 245 pre-orders! My goal now is to reach at least 600 by December 1, World AIDS Day.

That means I’ll need your help. So I’ve asked my friend and former colleague, Cristina, to tell you about her EASY and QUICK GET-THE-WORD-OUT STRATEGY. 

From Cristina:

Hi, everyone! If you're getting this update, it means you already pre-ordered Nowhere Else I’d Rather Be. Thank you.

The next logical step is to spread the word about this fabulous book to friends and colleagues who are like-minded - ANYONE WHO YOU THINK WILL ALSO ENJOY and FIND MEANING IN CAROL'S WORK. 

This will take you less than 5 minutes. And it would mean so much to us if you would do it by FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9.

1. Think about what appeals to you about Carol’s work at Miriam’s House and/or the book.

2. Post those sentiments on your favorite social media outlet (for me that is Facebook).

3. Include the link to Carol’s Inkshare’s page. (https://www.inkshares.com/projects/nowhere-else-i-want-to-be/)

4. Tag people (on facebook, in the comments section under your post) who you think would also find meaning in those elements of Carol's story.

One of the people I tagged not only bought a copy of the book for her volunteer cohort, but then also posted about the book on HER Facebook page and tagged friends SHE thought would be interested! How wonderful!

THIS IS HOW WE’RE GOING TO GET THE MESSAGE OUT. It's one way to help Carol reach that 1,000 pre-order goal. You'll be hearing more ways later.

 [Optional: If you create a post and want to share it with Carol, take a screen shot of your post and message the pic to her at the new Nowhere Else I Want To Be Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/caroldmarshmemoir?ref=aymt_homepage_panel]

We’d love to see how this spreads!

Best wishes, Cristina and Carol
