Listened to a Ted Talk by @quirkyrican Gabby Rivera with my students today. I was inspired by Gabby's celebration of tough Bronx Latinas, her acceptance of her own sensitivity, and of the wish-fulfillment she gets to express by writing Marvel's superhero @missamericachavez, and prompted the kids to create relatable superheroes of their own. ### In her talk, Gabby shares about the power of connecting with your ancestors. When she'd first been exposed to the idea, she was nineteen and knew nothing of ancestors, she says. My students are sixteen, seventeen at most, and, I told them, it's never too early to think about who you came from, and to call on them to inspire your writing. ### While it's more common for People of Color to connect with the idea of ancestors, I told to my white students, no one is 'just' white. We all come from someone, and somewhere, and there's wisdom and love to be found when we look back, look inside, and reach out to them. #latinxinpublishing #latinawriters #pocwriters #representationmatters #thankyouancestors #honoryourancestors #creativelife #creativewritingclass #writingprompt #writingstories #writingworkshop #writingteacher https://www.instagram.com/p/BuWyua7ggaE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fsimulpak6pw

Read a searing poem by @brittanyconrad_ and she inspired me to start writing my memoir again. Now, whether I start sharing it here is another story... #pocinpublishing #representationmatters #bronxwriters #mixedrace #latinxinpublishing #latinxintherapy (at Olympic National Park)
Reminded this weekend that editing is sacred work. Great writing comes from the soul, especially writing meant to inspire and transform. A great editor respects that in how she approaches the words AND the writer. #pocinpublishing #latinxinpublishing #justmercybook #creativeservices #spiritualeditor (at University Place, Washington)
