On the day that ARI & DANTE hit the book stores, my mother died. She was the most important person in my life. If living is an art, then my mother was Picasso. It was the saddest day of my life. There's this: Those who sow in tears, shall reap rejoicing.
When I finished writing ARI & DANTE, I remember thinking: Who's going to read a book about 2 boys living in El Paso, Texas in 1987 who fall in love? Nobody. Nobody's going to read it. I want to thank all of you who
proved me wrong.

if i could have put what i was feeling into words, the words would have been an infant’s wail: i don’t want to be alone. i want someone to want me. i’m lonely. i’m scared. i need to be loved, to be touched, to be held.
