Editing / Edición
Here you can find editing and editorial work I’ve performed. Mango and 8cho Indeleble are two editorial endeavours I started to pursue out of the love for literature and out of a need to publish my work, since it was somewhat suffocatting to see papers pile up in my desk without the eye of the world seeing them.
Aquí puede encontrar trabajo de edición y editorial que he llevado a cabo. Mango y 8cho Indeleble son dos emprendimientos editoriales que comencé por amor a la literatura y por una necesidad de publicar mi trabajo, ya que era un tanto sofocante ver los papeles apilarse sobre mi escritorio sin el ojo del mundo viéndolos.
Mango | Bilingual Literature Magazine
Mango is a Bilingual Literature Magazine currently based in Orlando, published every six months (June and December).
My business partner, Jinit Desai, lives in Chicago and the five editions have seen the day of light in Cali, Colombia, the last city I lived in, where our visual artist editor, Pablo Chaco, currently resides.
Currently we are accepting pieces both of literature (fiction, non-fiction and poetry) and visual art (artistic and documentary photography as well as photo collage and illustration.)

8cho Indeleble
8cho indeleble is a project that is currently on standby. It started out as handcrafted notebooks with a white space for infinite creation.
I started to make these by hand because buying one notebook of this type was not costly-benefitial to my pocket, so I bought the paper, folded it, sewed it together and pasted a cover designed by the ex-wife.
Through 8cho Indeleble I published my first book of literature called Cuentos Poesía Corto, a collection of four short stories, nine poems and a short film.
Furthermore, I made agendas including the work of a local photographer both to promote his work and the notebooks.
An emerging artist, El Gato Molina, performed his practice in the company and the outcome was an illustration book called El Polo Opuesto.
I’m currently looking for business partners to restart the company. E-mail me through the Contact link if you’re interested.
