Jade Publishing: A New Beginning
We are delighted to announce that Jade Publishing will have its first public book presentation where the community will have the opportunity to know more about our literary mission, our vision for Latino literature, as well as our forthcoming titles. The presentation will include the award winning author, Dr. Christopher Carmona, who will present his book, 140 Twitter Poems. Christopher Carmona was recognized as one of the top five writers in 2014 by The Texas Observer and received the NACCS Fiction Award in 2016. 140 Twitter Poems is part of the Libro en mano (Book in Hand) collection which is a literacy campaign by Jade Publishing to promote and instill the importance of literature in our community by printing phone sized books that are easy to carry at all times. The presentation will be held in McAllen, TX on January 26, 2017 from 5PM-6PM, at the Mexican Consulate. Come and join us for a new chapter of Latino literature! |
