If you could go back in time but couldn’t interact (unlike Alice in the TV show The Way Home) and only observe, would you do it? What would you do differently in your present life?
Unlike the show where the characters can go back in time beyond their own lives, these poems will focus on the poet's life and what she wishes could happen. With the hope that it will lead you to reflect on yours.
Would you join a psychological study to pay for college?
Valencia Calderon never expected her college would be paid for through a study that dealt with her trauma of losing her parents before high school graduation. The study's tech wizard, Xavier Gomez, is the only one she trusts and gets closer to since her best friend, Jasmine Dias, recently moved away and is difficult to reach. As we join Valencia through the study, we learn along with her, especially the study’s layers: who's working, running, and creating it? It's up to Valencia to write her destiny through the past.
NEVER FORGET will be an interesting mystery with an inspiring ending. It’s the right time to buy this second stand-alone book in an interconnected series.

Writing Community, we need to focus on our mental health!
Every writing book focuses on the process of crafting the story but it usually doesn't factor in our struggles as authors. If we care for ourselves, we will be able to produce better writing. Especially when we're constantly told that we have to produce to be successful. If we run like we're running out of time, we will burn out. If we want to keep going, we have to pace ourselves & look at the long game. We make the dream work.
Of all the comic book shops in South Texas, Lola Cortes (Mexican immigrant) walked into his.
Chase Benitez learns of their newborn daughter, Evita, when Lola is taken from the hospital by ICE. Chase needs to overcome family dynamics to reunite his new family. But will Lola will find the hero within before Chase finds where she is? It looks like it is in reach when systematic obstacles get in their way. Years later, Evita’s parents’ story leads her to stardom, but it’s when she is drawn back home that she realizes that every version of love matters. In a time when life feels uncertain, Liberty Calling will be an emotional journey with a guaranteed hopeful ending.
