The patriarch of my novel, Octavio ‘Papa Tavo’ Izquierdo, loved collecting maps. It is so sweet that The Family Izquierdo is on the La Times Literary Map, representing McAllen, the city the Izquierdos love and live in. https://t.co/PkZarSbQGs

Fall reading invitations for Oklahoma, Utah, Richmond, TX and our book festival in McAllen. I’m surprised and amazed that people are still interested in The Family Izquierdo after a year later. I’m so blessed.

Jen is an amazing writer! I have one of her books now, The Predatory Animal Ball, a wonderful flash collection. And I look forward to her latest. https://t.co/IkNHfUvcLB https://t.co/mFM71WgaNL

@lumchanmfa It’s powerful and to me reminiscent of Louise Erdrich’s The Red Convertible.
