4 de la mañana Abro una Medalla Porque no puedo pensar en más nada Los vientos soplan rabiosos afuera Se escucha un ruido que espanta a cualquiera Pasan las horas y Juracán sigue Batiendo esta isla que de esperanza vive Derrumbes, peste y escasez Lo que dejó el día después A picar palos y abrir … Continue reading 2017-10-7 – María

Pixie Piper 3 is on its way!

April 29, 20182 Comments

Yesterday I finished the first draft of The Adventures of Pixie Piper 3: Dark Wish. I'm feeling pretty good! The writing flowed well with this one. I'd done an outline and followed it. Nothing too detailed, but with the most important events already included. I must admit, it helped a lot. Of course, I did … Continue reading Pixie Piper 3 is on its way!

Inclusion Writers – My bad, but not really

March 6, 2018March 7, 2018Leave a comment

When Frances McDormand said "inclusion riders" during her acceptance speech at the #Oscars2018, I could've sworn she said "writers". "Inclusion writers" made so much sense to me I even tweeted it. You see, I'm a writer. And writers are the people who include the characters in their stories. Whether it be a book, short story, … Continue reading Inclusion Writers – My bad, but not really

7 Puerto Rican Authors Writing in English

January 30, 20184 Comments

When you think of a Puerto Rican author, you probably think they write in Spanish. Sure, there are plenty of boricua authors established in the US who publish in English, but those publishing their work in Puerto Rico tend to write in Spanish. That said, there are exceptions. And they are good ones. Currently, we … Continue reading 7 Puerto Rican Authors Writing in English

January 10, 2018January 11, 20181 Comment

The Trove of the Water Dragon by Maricel Jiménez Peña My rating: 5 of 5 stars I had been holding off on writing a review for this book because, for a while I felt that it wasn't as good as book 1. I now realize (after a good re-read) that it's actually pretty awesome. It's … Continue reading Pixie Piper 2: My Review
