Extra! Extra! Read All About It! In an actual book…

Amores! Do you know what came for me in the mail the other day? This book:

It is a collection of  ”LGBTQ Dispatches From the Third Coast” and one of the dispatches was written by ME! I’ll admit… I’m notoriously shy about publication, but it is a really good feeling to scan a table of contents and see your name in it. It makes me think it would be an even better feeling to look at the COVER of a book and see my name on it, so maybe I’ll get on that someday.

In the meantime, there are two ways for you to find out what I had to offer as a dispatch (spoiler alert: it is funny, crabby, and references my favourite song, which is the mariachi version of A Puro Dolor). 1.) You could buy the book, which is a great idea because it is edited by the wonderful Kathie Bergquist and includes writing by SO MANY WRITERS I LOVE: Sharon Bridgforth, Achy Obejas, avery r. young, kay ulanday barrett, David Kodeski and more. And 2.) you can come to one of the book signings where I’ll be reading from the book. If you don’t have a book for me to sign, then I can sign something else. I’m not a rockstar, and I am in a LTR with a kid, though NOT married  (whoops, that’s another spoiler alert!) so it is better if the something is not a body part.
