Are you working on anything new? I read "Revolution" years ago and I still think of it! Would love to read another novel you may have coming?

or would like assistance? How many are truly affected by mental illness? I just think there must be so many interesting stories to tell from this community of people that continues to grow. I would like to understand more about this culture and I thought you might consider synthesizing this experience in a fictional narrative. Thanks so much for your consideration of my idea! Best, Julie

The housing crisis and houselessness are huge problems here in Portland as well, and it's something I work to address in my activism, but I've got other issues on the table for my current fiction work. But thanks for sharing your idea! (less)

Quotes by Cari Luna (?)

“she thought maybe she’d be a rock star, but she just ended up another name on the very long list of people Lou Reed was rude to. Yeah,”
― Cari Luna, The Revolution of Every Day

“Apartment windows are cracked open to the cold to balance overzealous radiators, and there's comfort in the sounds drifting out. Each window Amelia passes hints at the warmth inside: people talking, people laughing, kitchen sounds, the steady pulse of music. Now salsa, now reggae. Now opera, now rock. voices in English, in Spanish in Korean, in junkie gibberish. And she's a part of it, at least as long as the sounds of all those lives wash over her.”
― Cari Luna, The Revolution of Every Day

“Fourteen years together and Anne still doesn’t speak much Spanish. You’d think she’d be a little curious, at least. Want to know what the inside of her husband’s head sounds like. If she lived half her life, dreamed more than half her dreams in some other language, he’d want to know. He’d want in.”
― Cari Luna, The Revolution of Every Day
