Look mom, I’m in Tu Ciudad!
Tu Ciudad Magazine, which focuses on Latino Los Angeles, quoted me in an article on Latinos in blogging in this month’s issue. I think it’s kinda cool and hope that what they say about the increase in Latinos blogging is right. I feel it’s important for us to be speaking for ourselves, even if it is through the self-published medium of blogging.
Since I’ve started blogging, I’ve found a lot more people doing similar things and it’s created an interesting and supportive community, Blogotitlán (by the way, I didn’t coin that, but I can’t remember where I read it first). When I started contributing to blogging.la I searched for Latino bloggers based in LA, I couldn’t find too many. I’m glad there’s a lot more now.

VERY cool.
Congrats! And you’re crazy for giving up tortillas–absolutely CRAZY. But might I suggest using pita or lavash as a substitute. Think of the two as a thicker tortilla de trigo…
You certainly deserve the press, your blog is a joy to read!
However, there is one blog I am not too happy with right now and it’s due to their maligning of my East LA peeps. Curbed LA usually covers architecture, design and urban planning issues so I’m not sure why they would title a post about a new high school in East LA like this:
“East LA Teens Getting More Edumicated”
Perhaps they thought it was smarmy clever…the comment section is worse.

I agree, I see many of our gente becoming bloggers, including myself.
Dude, you were the one they led with … as they should have, of course. That’s awesome. Congrats.
