Letras Latinas Roundtable with Lauro Vasquez and Lucas de Lima

I met Lauro Vasquez toward the end of the fall 2011 semester and then spent most of my time at AWP Chicago hanging out with him. Me encariñe tanto con el! This guy is genuine, intelligent and a very good writer. We mentioned collaborating on some round table discussions with the goal to explore our craft and hone a community among Latin@s in MFA programs.

Check out a round table discussion I was a part of with him and Lucas de Lima here. Another roundtable is in the works and you should look forward to it ;)

Muchos thank yous go out to Lauro for moderating this conversation and getting it internet ready.

From the Letras Latinas blogsite: 

Letras Latinas, the literary program of the Institute forLatino Studies, seeks to enhance the visibility, appreciation and study of Latino literature both on and off the campus of the University of Notre Dame. We are particularly interested in projects that identify and support emerging Latino/a writers. Letras Latinas actively seeks collaboration with individuals and organizations in order to more effectively carry out its mission. Letras Latinas is under the direction of Francisco Aragón, with assistance from Notre Dame M.F.A. candidate Lauro Vazquez.
