Last week, I answered one of Madonna’s tweets, and her Music has been playing at home ever since. No music, no fun. No fun, no life. Repeat it like a mantra.

I am cultural writer from Lima, Peru. Now publishing from San Francisco. #KingofCups
Y2K didn't happen, but I did move to Florida in the year 2000. Miami was kind of the vibe for me during the '90s, so into the new millennium and the Magic City I went, for college and to find whatever life now could and would be. I graduated from Florida International University, then went to work in its in-house communications/marketing department, as a writer, video producer, and associate editor of "FIU Magazine," the university's flagship alumni publication.
By the time I got to work at FIU I'd already been working with and writing for the weekly "Wire Magazine" on the beach and the periodical "Miami Living" magazine, writing my Movie Martin blog, contributing to the occasional "Awful Truth" by Ted Casablanca once upon a time on E! Online. Later, I started stringing story for "Us Weekly." That was fun. It was all kinds of a heckuva lot of fun.
King of Cups is my new empirical, memoiristic non-linear independent writing exercise. (Independent: Rhymes with unpaid, as in this is free, so represent and support, OK. Amplify the shit.) I mince no words, I mean no harm, and I come in peace.

Alive and Well
Late last month I saw something on Twitter that made me sad. LOL. A darling friend from Miami – we went to see Madonna perform during one of the DVD nights of her “MDNA Tour” (so we tight) – was lamenting her teenaged son’s first day back in school, as she noted that Rudy Giuliani’s […]
San Francisco Chinatown 8.23.18
Pasear por el #BarrioChino de #SanFrancisco hace unas semanas luego me hizo pensar en los amigos venezolanos que han dejado #Venezuela por esta u otra razón. Bastantes han arrivado en #Peru, mi país de nacimiento; conocí a algunos la última vez que estuve en #Lima, en enero. Todos – jóvenes, con familias – ejercían el trabajo que […]
