During a revolution, the property and mine were confiscated and her family had to flee to the United States. The details of this event are a mystery, but her story could be a great plot for a novel and a way to explore early Spanish history and early integration challenges of Mexicans in America, long before any president contemplated building a wall.(less)

In November of 2022, I participated in one of the last NANOWRIMO writing competitions (if not the last), before the NANOWRIMO writing community closed its digital doors. What a loss! It was the first time I had ever hit the 50k word count in the competition, and I ordered the “winner” T-shirt as proof. 

That was the same challenge that launched my rom-com Christmas novel. Fifty-thousand words is a

Emmanuel Levinas
“Faith is not a question of the existence or non-existence of God. It is believing that love without reward is valuable.”
Emmanuel Levinas

Emmanuel Levinas
“Love remains a relation with the Other that turns into need, transcendent exteriority of the other, of the beloved. But love goes beyond the beloved... The possibility of the Other appearing as an object of a need while retaining his alterity, or again,the possibility of enjoying the Other... this simultaneity of need and desire, or concupiscence and transcendence,... constitutes the originality of the erotic which, in this sense, is the equivocal par excellence.”
Emmanuel Lévinas, Totality and Infinity: An Essay on Exteriority

Susan Sontag
“I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list.”
Susan Sontag

Thich Nhat Hanh
“People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.”
Thich Nhat Hanh
