I work at a non-profit that focuses on community based planning.

Dancing with friends Thursday through Saturday. I make the rounds on a lot of political science, art, cycling, urban studies and soccer related events.

Gloria Anzaldua
Julia Alvarez -> In the time of the Butterflies, How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accent
Gary Soto almost raised me with his short stories
Zora Neale Hurston -> Read her section about her experience sitting in the New World Cabaret and understand how I experience music and dancing.

Neil Gaiman -> American Gods, Ananzi Boys, Whatever Happened to The Dark Knight, Good Omens, The Ocean at The End of the Lane
