Life of JEM: On Writing a Dystopian World with Writer Michelle Cruz Gonzales
JEM is pogo dancing with excitement about this interview of Writer, Professor and Punkera Michelle Cruz Gonzales (who is the former drummer & lyricist for the iconic, all female punk band Spitboy). Michelle and JEM talk about Michelle's latest dystopian novella, Marisolandia, a book which tackles and references some of the very issues of our day, immigration, language, forced assimilation, facism, racism, and loss. They talk about craft, about punk rock, about social justice and more. Go get Michelle's masterpiece of a book, it's available by WTAW Press, & then listen to this scintillating conversation!
