I followed Eduardo's links to recent Momotombo Press interviews. I love these interviews. I have all of the MP chapbooks, and each one is a wonderful work of art. I love using these beautiful books in my classes. Hats off to Francisco Aragón (w/ Letras Latinas at Notre Dame), María Meléndez, and Richard Yañez for this important work.
In addition to Eduardo's recent interviews, it's great to see that Carolina Monsivais conducted an interview with Michelle Otero about Michelle's essay-collection Malinche's Daughter. ¡Viva las mujeres! And I'm going to miss :( Carolina reading with María Meléndez this Friday (I think it's this Friday night) at New Mexico State University. If anyone's in the area--check out the reading... two Chicanas gonna rock da house.

I loved that Michelle Otero interview. I have her book on my mental wish list. In fact I enjoyed all the interviews, but Otero's fascinated me, thanks for reminding to get her book.
hi suzanne: i love the interview too... here's an online exerpt from Malinche's Daughter that is a lyrical and powerful part of the book if you want to take a peak: http://www.bordersenses.com/featuredworksarch.php?id=7
Thanks for this info. Emmy!
I will check it out.
Thanks for the link, Emmy!
ps Wow Wow Wow! Now I must get her book. Thanks again.
Emmy,

Hey Emmy. Where are you now. In Edenburg? EPT? Back and forth. The UT Pan Am MECHAS were always filled with great spirit and a great spiritual connection to UTEP. If you meet any people who were in MEChA at UTPA in the last 90s, ask them about "Las Chavas de Pan Am." Jose Rodriguez, EPCO's county attorney graduated from there. Felipe and Glenda Ortego are up in Kingsville. You'll have to learn to say Alice, too. Anyway, I have your utep address on our subscription list, so if its changed, updates us at plumafronteriza AT msn DOT com
Take care, Ray - www.plumafront.blogspot.com
Thanks for writing Ray! I'll email you right now.
