Shakotan Blue (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781517040628)

Lucas Kelleher is a writer and group fitness instructor living in Seattle, Washington with his wife, Marissa. In 2011 and 2012, he lived and taught English in a remote fishing village in northern Japan, the first foreigner to reside there. This became the basis for his book, Shakotan Blue. Born and raised in Iowa, Lucas graduated from the University of Washington in 2008. Beyond writing, Lucas is also a celebrated athlete. For over ten years he has been a core member of Rabid Dust Bunnies FC, the single greatest co-ed soccer team in the history of Seattle recreational sports. Most mornings you will find him at the gym, where he regularly leads group exercise classes set to upbeat music. He is a hard teacher, but he is fair. Lucas is also the editor of KelleherBros.com, a website where he and his brothers provide thought-provoking commentary on matters of media and society-but mostly talk about old video games.
