***************
Dear JET Alumni,
Greetings from the JETAA Southern California Media Coordinator (Toyama-ken, 1995-98). I act as the liason with Sushi & Sake Magazine, a monthly publication that features a JET alumni column in each of its publications. Sushi & Sake’s primary goal is “to introduce Japanese culture to the non-Japanese residents of Southern California with particular emphasis on cuisine, language, its business community, and geographic regions…” I am seeking JET alumni who would like to share stories about the JET experiences (in 450-500 words or less) and be featured in Sushi & Sake. This is a great way to impart one of your unique memories about your time in Japan with a broad readership. You don’t have to be a professional writer…just willing to put some words down on paper and send them to me. Please contact me with any questions and dozo yoroshiku onegai shimasu!
Sincerely,
Elizabeth White, JETAASC Media Coordinator
