Middle Gray Workshop

Happy to share that I’ve teamed up with the wonderful people at The Middle Gray, an art-centered cafe in Brookline, MA, to offer a workshop focused on generating ideas for short stories.

The workshop price includes dinner and wine following the class, where attendees will get an opportunity to mingle and continue the conversation with me as well. If you or someone you know is interested in jumpstarting their writing and meeting some people with common interests in the Boston area, please share!

The Muse & the Marketplace Sessions

I’m happy to share that I’ll be presenting two sessions (they can be found under my name) at this year’s The Muse & the Marketplace conference in Boston! The sessions are filling up quickly, so please share with those who might be interested.

Registration is now open for the conference, which will bring together an amazing group of writers, agents, and editors.

I’m looking forward to being a part of it with the wonderful folks at GrubStreet and meeting new people who love writing, literature, and the publishing world as much as I do.

Brown University Visit

It still seems a bit unreal, but it is actually happening: I’m doing a public reading at Brown University on March 1st and meeting with faculty and students in Latina/o Studies. Also, my story “Marching Men,“ originally published in Prairie Schooner, is being taught at the university. I will have the opportunity to co-teach a class in which the story will be discussed.

I’m immensely grateful for this opportunity, and I can’t wait to meet the wonderful professors and students in Latina/o Studies at the university!

Cape Cod Story Collection Class

The date of my one-day class on how to put together and promote a successful story collection is nearing! I’m including the details of how the Cape Cod Writer’s Retreat works, as well as a link to the class itself.

Come spend a weekend at a historic Inn discussing fiction writing and story collections!
