A note on identity: I have a Hispanic last name, but it is derivative of my Sephardic identity (Jews from Spain). I am not part of the Latine community. Please refrain from including me in any lists uplifting Latine authors and their books. Instead, it would be an honor to be included in any diverse lists featuring Jewish (Ashkenazi or Sephardic), Queer, MENA/SWANA diaspora (Lebanese-American) authors. Thank you!
