Now, Damisi has a request that only Jabir could fulfill. Their encounter sets off a series of events that leave them both with fresh pain and hurt. They vow never to see each other again, but fate has a different idea.

Wisdom and Inspiration from Latina Authors in New
Compilation

Latina Authors and Their Muses features advice from 40
women writers

CLICK HERE FOR EXCERPT

As the Hispanic American population of the U.S. increases, with
influences ranging from Mexico to Central America and the Caribbean, so does
interest in literature inspired by those cultures. 
 

Award-winning author Mayra Calvani has now edited a collection
of interviews with 40 Latina authors living in the U.S. and writing in English.
Latina Authors and Their Muses is an inspirational and
informative book focusing on the craft of writing and the business of
publishing, one that provides aspiring writers with the nuts and bolts of the
business.

 

I had the opportunity to meet Carmen Dolores Hernandez, book
review editor at
El Nuevo Día
newspaper in San Juan, Puerto Rico, when she visited me in Brussels,
says Calvani. Shed published some of my short stories and novel excerpts in Revista
Domingo
in the past, and I deeply admired her wisdom as a writer and
woman of letters.

 

She mentioned the anthology she had put
together back in 1997, Puerto Rican Voices in English. I ordered a copy
and became absorbed by the candor and insight of the authors as they talked
about their backgrounds, books, and writing,
Calvani continues.

 

Wouldnt it be
perfect to put together a similar anthology showcasing Latina authors writing
in English in the United States? This book would not only showcase prominent
figures but emerging voices as well, writers working on a wide range of genres
from the literary to the commercial.

A DECENT WOMAN

A Decent WomanA Decent Woman by Eleanor Parker Sapia
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
A Decent Woman is historical, folkloric, transformative book. The storyline is clever and smart, simply put a fabulous story. Where there is suffering, poverty and hardship with beautiful writing the book sheds light and hope. The writing is indeed so beautiful that I found myself re-reading some sentences because they impacted me so. In the face of suffering friends support each other in a most loving way.
The book addresses hard subjects and I fact checked, this is an impressively researched piece, weaving in the historical data makes the story real and palpable. I found particularly interesting how clever the wide variety of characters who ranged in such a wide spectrum of the socio-economic strata developed; Complex characters full of depth that allowed for the story to surprise me as a reader.
The folklore both from the Caribbean and Africa was fascinating. I felt it gave added depth to the characters, especially Ana. The secrets of her past unravel in a clever way; this book is well written, clever and as with fantastic fiction very believable.
I have only visited Puerto Rico once years ago, this book made me long to make the next visit soon targeting history and folklore.

TELL THE TRUTH…

Tell the Truth The Devil Won'tAbout The Book
The full-figured Esther Redding doesn’t realize it, but she desperately needs a change. Her Cinderella tiara is tarnished, and her glass slippers cracked.
No longer any one’s knight in shining armor, Briggs Stokes always had a soft spot for Esther. She was in his blood, and he didn’t want a transfusion. When he returns to Detroit, he decides that nothing will keep him from her door. Well, nothing . . . but the once reformed bad girl, Monica Stokes Hawthorne, Briggs’s ex, who wants to be his—give me one more chance, again—wife. The resulting tug-of-war that ensues may be the catalyst that destroys the person they both love the most.
More than one household is upset when the prison doors swing open and a “rehabilitated” Roger, Esther’s ex, returns home. Following Roger is a sinister force so malicious that no one in their community will be left untouched.
When truth is held hostage by lies, mayhem ensues. And when it does, the lives of Esther, Briggs, Monica, and Roger are forever changed.
Don’t blink—pray—these shenanigans are too shocking to miss . . .
Tell the Truth The Devil Won't
