About this author

NEW: The Sandoval Sisters' Secret of Old Blood is a finalist in two categories with the International Latino Book Awards: Best Historical Fiction and Best First Book, Fiction.
The issues confronted by the Sandoval sisters are contemporary: racism, sexual and religious intolerance, and the power of superstition. Finally, it is a story of what constitutes a family, and the myths associated with the blood and bounds of loyalty.

A complete list of my published short stories (with links where available) can be found here: http://www.sramosobriant.com/about_sa...







This Saturday, I'll be at Tia Chucha's Cultural Center and Bookstore signing The Sandoval Sisters' Secret of Old Blood, and participating in an author panel: Liberating Queer Stories, 3:30 to 4:15. Special added short story bonus w/book. read more »
