Hey y'all,

I am happy and proud to announce the first ever print issue of Latino Book Review! I am on the masthead as a contributing editor for all the reviews I've done, and my take on Natalia Sylvester's "Everybody Knows You Go Home" made it into Issue One. You can order it here.

Also, for those of y'all that speak Spanish, my short story castellano debut is in Azahares Issue Eleven! It's a family tale about the violent assault on Managua by Ortega's forces in the 80's, and the lengths one mother went to to care for her family and survive. There's lots of voseo and modismos pinoleros.

You can also check out the digital edition free here. The tale is only about 2.5k words long and written in dialogue form ala Puig and Gaddis, two of my idols.
