My intention is to work on inspiring projects that change people's lives and explore the intersections of social justice, race, feminism, spirituality and healing. But sometimes I get a gig editing a digital marketing manual because... freelance. #poceditor #pocwriters #editorsofcolor #pocpubluv #pocinpublishing #editorslife #ineedaneditor #editorsofinstagram #editingwhilelatina #workathome #worklifebalance #freelancelifestyle #freelancelife #ilovemyjob (at University Place, Washington)

My daughter reading and wondering why the protagonist isn't resonating. Her hypothesis: an author who's writing about what it's like to be lower middle class and doesn't know what she's talking about.

Driving and listening to the mixed race, black identified @jennydeluxe and @wsslyy on the New York Times podcast Still Processing episode about @getoutmovie. Drinking in their commentary on race, culture, being mixed, bioks, writers, movies, TV. I love their soul food for thought. #mixedchicks #mixedremixed #passingaswhite #biracialprivilege #representationmatters #awesomepodcast #whiteproximity #itsnotapostracialworldafterall #sayhername #blacklivesmatter #latinxlivesmatter #pocinpublishing #pocpubluv #soulfoodforthought (at Olympia, Washington)

#allthewomeninmyfamilysing is even better than I'd hoped. @nataliebaszile, Maria Ramos-Chertok, @randi__b, Janine Shiota and @themilajam. Wow. Each one writes sentences that light up dark corners of my own soul. #wocwriters #pocwriters #pocpubluv #pocinpublishing #womenwriters (at Catlin Gabel)

My son just got cast in his first commercial and we're on set. Meanwhile, I'm reading #allthewomeninmyfamilysing from @nothingbutthetruthpublishing, an anthology of writings by women of color with beautiful cover art by @favianna1. #ilovemyjob #pocinpublishing #pocpubluv #latinawriters #latinxwriters #equalityjusticefreedom #editingwhilelatina #readthisbook #readingwhilemothering #womensvoices #womensvoicesinspire #womenwriters

Caring so much about the world drives my work but can also be draining, so balancing work with the restorative power of nature is essential. Today I took the kids tide pooling, and waded through Puget Sound. #latinxintherapy #healingpowerofnature #pocinpublishing #natureheals #bookscanchangetheworld
