My guest today is Linda Raquel Nieves Pérez, who is another colleague of mine in the forthcoming young adult anthology Where Monsters Lurk and Magic Hides. The book comes out on November 10th and it’s perfect for fans of sci-fi, fantasy, romance, and horror who are looking for Latine stories. On the podcast, Linda shares about a favorite worship song that came from a spiritual church mother and how artistic expression was always an integral part of her church experience. We also talk about the power and beauty in Lizzo’s flute playing, and the problems with policing Latinx identity in the book publishing world. Stick around for the end of the episode where Linda shares an excerpt from her short story called “When They Come.” Let’s get right into this encuentro.
You can find Linda's debut short story in the Reclaim the Stars SFF Anthology!
