Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez, author of Playing With Boys and The Dirty Girls Social Club, has a blog, La Queen Sucia. (It was she who authored the review of The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls, mentioned here a few weeks back.)
During the past couple of weeks, Ms. Valdes-Rodriguez has included commentary on her personal social life beginning with The Dating Game (December 21), followed by Happy Things (December 29) and yesterday, Back to the old…drawing board.” One wishes Ms. Valdes-Rodriguez more satisfying endings, but these three posts together struck NewMexiKen as a fascinating short story in real time.
Valdes-Rodriguez’s newest novel, Make Him Look Good, will be published in April.
Man, you just never know what you are going to find on NewMexiKen.
Thanks for the pointer.
