My Interests

I'd like to meet:

We're here to meet fellow writers and readers, cool Latinas, and other artists. We'd also like to promote future readings and publications, and if anyone's in the mood, talk about issues affecting our community like immigration reform or our favorite characters on Ugly Betty. If you're interested in having us speak at your university, do a reading at your bookstore, or perform at your niece's quinceñera, please drop us a line.
