Looking to talk to a writer/cultural sensitivity reader from Mexico or with a Mexican background on how to construct an alternate-history cyberpunk Mexico that's interesting and complex without stepping on half a dozen rakes. Paid.

Samurai swords, cowboy guns, and prophecy-fueled chaos. Cloud of Sparrows throws 19th-century Japan into a blender with the Wild West. It’s bloody, brainy, and a little messy. But damn, it’s got style. Matsuoka’s debut swings for the fences. 🔗

My collection of various horror comes out on Halloween. I'd love if people took a gander(pre-order). Not all horror is as it seems. Monsters, both human and nonhuman run amok in it's pages. Aliens, werewolves, goblins, bunghole humans? I got you.
