Very happy to have my story “Rain Dance” in the newest @puertomag! The first draft of this happened almost ten years ago, before I knew what autofiction was, when I was just following images and sounds. It is very special to me and I am so grateful to have it in the world! ❤️

We are excited to announce the theme for our Spring 2025 Issue! “FREAK” — Puerto del Sol is seeking work which engages with the theme of freak. Freaking, to freak, to be freaked. A freaky thing. Freak has a past: a rotten one. Freak us out, please…we’re begging ✨

Thank you for your work!
I have a story in @puertomag about a Black boy struggling with bullying, a problematic principal, and a toxic father. Thank you everyone @puertomag for publishing my story.
