The Storyteller and the Campfire
Right now, there is a pool on the roof of a school somewhere in the world. This is a pool no one has seen, nor has anyone been able to prove it is up there. Yet the pool is believed to be there, simply because someone told us it was there. See, someone told someone. Then someone told someone else and so on down the line. Now the seniors are excitedly telling the new kids the latest version of where the pool is and why no one has seen it.

"Hear Me Out..."
“Hear me out…” Three simple words. A challenge, a tease, a temptation. I usually embed these three words within every pitch I make. These pitches blend in with the other blog posts that I make on a daily basis, yet they contain elevated levels of passion.

My Pen
Can I Call Myself a Writer? Maybe Yes. Maybe No. Grammarly tells me that I am doing well within my nuances of language; But is that enough to say "Yes I am a writer" I believe I could call myself a wordsmith but is that the same as being identified as a writer?

The Stories That Inspired Me
If you're not writing, you should be reading. When I first started taking writing fiction really seriously, that was the message trumpeted across all of my research as I learned about editors and querying and getting an agent. You've always got to be trying to improve your craft; what better way than by reading the work of others?

Las Mata Maridos
I wanted to take a moment to tell you a bit about myself before we delve into the countless stories that will follow. My name is Arlene Sanabria. Born and raised in East Los Angeles, California, 90022 and the barrio life is like a prison tattoo of goals and dreams. One may not know how they are going to achieve their dreams and it definitely will not happen the way it would if you were from Beverly Hills, California 90210. It can happen nonetheless, it will just have a spanglish way of becoming reality. I have always lived for storytelling both telling my own and listening to someone else. Growing up, I wrote a great deal of stories but not until my thirties did I write what has become the great love of my life. Looking back on it now I was searching for something that I could not pinpoint exactly. That certain thing that drives an individual to be creative in their passion no matter what that passion may be and I was at a point in life where I was lacking that spark. Then one random weeknight all that changed one night and "The Women" were born.
