Parable of the Brown Sheep<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

By Christopher Gonz\u00e1lez<\/em><\/p>\n

Christopher Gonz\u00e1lez<\/strong> is a PhD Candidate in the Department of English at The Ohio State University.\u00a0 Chris grew up in west Texas, and states that the US\/Mexico border never factored into his identity. As a result, his own worldview was never (and still is not) border-centric.\u00a0 In his fiction, he tends to focus less on movement across a border and more on an infusionist mindset which treats how Latinos are infused with non-Latino culture and vice versa. This infusion may manifest in religions, foods, and other cultural practices. In his scholarly work, he specializes in understanding how various narrative forms, and especially those narratives created by Latinos, impact and influence readers in significant ways. At the heart of his interests is how people can be cognitively and emotionally moved through willful expressions of storytelling in a variety of media. His dissertation traces the development of Latino literature in the United States by investigating the relationship between authorial decisions related to the creation of narrative storyworlds<\/em> and reader expectations that enable or constrain such authorial decisions. Christopher\u2019s recent scholarly work has investigated representations of Afrolatinidad<\/em>, as well as what he calls a \u201cmechanized consciousness,\u201d the adoption of a machine-like mentality by America\u2019s migrant labor force. In addition, Christopher is the editor of \u00bfQu\u00e9 Pasa, OSU?<\/em>, a community-based magazine about Latinos at Ohio State, as well as the managing editor of Philip Roth Studies<\/em>, a peer-reviewed semiannual journal devoted to the works of the American author Philip Roth. Christopher has been honored with the \u201cAward for Excellence in Teaching by a First-Year GTA\u201d as well as the Graduate Achievement in Latino\/a Studies (GALAS) award for the Outstanding Academic Paper written on the subject of Latino Studies by a graduate student at OSU. Christopher proudly serves as a mentor for OSU\u2019s LASER program (Latino and Latin American Space for Enrichment and Research), where he helps undergraduates who are transitioning to graduate school. He is also the current Graduate Representative for the MELUS society (The Society for the Study of Multi-Ethnic Literature of the United States).<\/p>\n

Nayeli\u2019s Nightmare<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

By Michael Pacheco<\/em><\/p>\n

Michael M. Pacheco<\/strong> was born in Mexico but from the age of four, was raised in the United States. He is a former prosecutor, Board of Parole member, Oregon State Assistant Attorney General and rock singer\/musician. In academia, he was a National Honor Student, placed second in a Gonzaga University-wide Oratorical Competition and later received his Bachelor\u2019s Degree in 1975 and Juris Doctorate in 1990. Michael is a veteran, having received an Honorable Discharge from the United States Marine Corps. Michael has been published at least seven times in legal periodicals and journals and has a full-length novel to be released in April or May 2011, by Paraguas Books tentatively titled, The Guadalupe Saints<\/em>. He is working on his fourth novel.<\/p>\n

Personal Power<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

By Sandra Ramos O\u2019Briant<\/em><\/p>\n

Sandra Ramos O’Briant<\/strong>‘s work has appeared in Caf\u00e9 Irreal<\/em>. Flashquake<\/em>, riverbabble<\/em>, In Posse<\/em>, LiteraryMama<\/em>, Whistling<\/em> Shade<\/em>, La Herencia<\/em>, latinola.com,<\/em> and The Copperfield Review.<\/em> In addition, her short stories have been anthologized in Best Lesbian Love Stories of 2004<\/em>, What Wildness is This: Women Write About the Southwest (<\/em>University of Texas Press, Spring 2007), Latinos in Lotus Land: An Anthology of Contemporary Southern California Literature,<\/em> (Bilingual Press, 2008), Hit List: The Best of Latino Mystery <\/em>(Arte Publico (<\/strong>2009), and The Mom Egg<\/em> (Half Shell Press, 2010). The Latina title for her has been hard won because growing up in Santa Fe, New Mexico no one would accept that her mother was Mexican. The O’Briant last name tagged her gringa<\/em> and put her on the outside looking in. But the outsider condition led to observing, and listening, and longing, all of which informs her writing.<\/p>\n
