Took the Kindle Unlimited Plunge and Still Fine-Tuning La Bruja del Barrio Loco

I took the plunge. No. Not that plunge. The other plunge. I enrolled The Long Walk in the Kindle Unlimited program.  I decided to do the longer works and keep some shorts on Smashwords, so I can give proofs to my students if they are not exclusively on Amazon.  La Bruja is staying on Smashwords and Wolf Trek will be on Amazon's Kindle Unlimited program.  I will try to always have some freebies on my Antojitos section.  I posted one that one first place many years ago in a college journal.  Check it out.  

I spent most of this morning working on union work, and then hit "La Bruja del Barrio Loco" hard.  Right now, I am reading for clarity.  Then, I will copy edit it.  It is 98% there, but I am dropping it off to the editor tomorrow for editing feedback.  I really like the changes I made and think the flashbacks flow better.  Well, I have to go to a union meeting, so I have to cut this one short. 

(I am going to have Mona and Christi, both, appear in that story after this one, so it follows a type of sequence.  It happens years after the first book.) 

Stay on your writing path.  #Resist

    MARIA J. ESTRADA is an English college professor of Composition, Literature, and her favorite, Creative Writing. She grew up in the desert outside of Yuma, Arizona in the real Barrio de Los Locos, a barrio comprised of new Mexican immigrants and first-generation Chicanos. Drawing from this setting and experiences, she writes like a loca every minute she can—all while magically balancing her work and family obligations. She lives in Chicago’s south side with her wonderfully supportive husband, two remarkable children, and a menagerie of animals.
