Hello my friends,

I wanted to be sure to get the word out to you about some upcoming features and workshops that I will be holding this week! It's a privilege to close out Poetry Month with a bang!

Rooftop Poetry Workshop with Jessica M. Wilson, MFA

Topic: Beat Generation @ 6pm

It all starts on Thursday, April 30th, the last day of Poetry Month, I'll be at The Hatchery, teaching a Poetry Workshop on the Beat Generation.

This is truly such an honor. It's something I have been wanting to do all my life and I feel so blessed that I have this opportunity to share what I love to do with the people.

This workshop is $5. It's held in the beautiful rooftop garden as we see the sun drape down into slumber.

Drinks, food, lesson, writing time, sharing... it's all good. We give critiques very respectfully. Come join us!

I know you will not be disappointed. The Hatchery is a great new resource for us Writers -- it's a complete and total office, write or read in total silence, or in community. Unlimited coffee and water, immaculate bathroom, printing, wifi, and air conditioning. Go up to the rooftop garden for the perfect inspiration to cure any writers' block.

Ways You Can Support 💜 Dear Friends, As I navigate some meaningful transitions this season, I’m reaching out with gratitude and humility. If you feel called to support, here are a few ways your kindness could truly help me and my little family right now: Help us get to León (August 14–21) so the kids and I can spend our birthday week together with loved ones. Contribute to our August rent — a little breathing room would mean a lot. Share resources or curriculum for advanced elementary studies — I’m homeschooling! Help me enroll in an advanced Spanish class. Support with vehicle tag renewal costs. Haircuts for the kiddos. New clothing for the little ones — they grow so fast! Help organizing and decluttering at home. Let me know if your address can be a reliable business address for LAPS correspondence. Let me know if you have a safe space to store a few treasured keepsakes from the kids’ (and my) childhood. Help us host a community birthday c...

One Month Away!

In one month, I get to marry the most loving person I've ever met in my lifetime! Juan Adrian Cardenas, thank you for loving me. Te amo! I have been in bliss ever since I've met him...and I can't believe how well I could ever get along with another human being. This is a wonderful gift, and I hope all of humanity gets the opportunity to experience this. Dreams come true. You must NEVER give up on yourself. You must also believe that you are WORTH every bit of happiness. You must cherish YOURSELF first before you find true love... True Love Never Diez... :) Love for yourself is really the primary thing...do what you love, be who you want to be... and your energy will exude into the ether...sending out pheromones, this is the attraction. Be yourself... you ARE the attraction. It's so possible, just never give up...that is my advice. Not sure if anyone asked, but I had to write this down. This is the path I've taken, which has led me to Juan. Led ...

Trials and Decades

In realizing that I have suffered 3 great tragedies, I found it odd that it seemed to represent the themes of each decade. I always sought harmony, family...(now at least found it in great friends). When I truly thought of all this, I affirmed that each of these tragedies created a triumph...simply because I am still here. I am still wound up and positive...moving forward. So, the three tragedies, in my eyes, can transform themselves into 3 different books. Or if not books, 3 sections of a book. It may be suitable that this book have 30 pages, but some topics take more time, some take more pain, and therefore cause more words to shed. I like that, words shed for tragedy lived. I think I have my title now.
