"Thank you for forwarding all those opportunities for writers. They're very well chosen, and I find myself forwarding many of them to people I think can take advantage of them."--Esmeralda Santiago, author of Conquistadora

"You have no idea how grateful I am. The Latinidad interview had wonderful results and I have more manuscripts than ever."--Ximena Ortiz, Editor, Llewellyn

"Latinidad is really awesome. I receive a lot of these, but yours is one of the few that really seeks to give information to the writer, instead of being a brag sheet."--Lori Perkins, literary agent

As a former Simon & Schuster editor, I know firsthand how challenging it is to get published. In order to help writers, particularly Latinos, I created Latinidad®, an e-zine chosen as one of the 101 Best Web Sites for Writers by Writer's Digest Magazine and the Best Writer's Resource in the category of Writer's Resource/Information/News in the Preditors & Editors Readers Poll.

Issues focus on specific topics such at Writing Critique Groups (January 2011), Online Book Publicity (September 2010), and Agents (September/October 2005). Writers tell me my e-zine and web site helped them find agents and get published; if it worked for them, it can work for you!
