(note – just found this essay I wrote as a Facebook post 4 years ago in tribute to my Great-Uncle Ignacio “Nacho” Almaguer, who had died a few nights earlier.

thought formations & notes for a future larger piece on corruption
Advantages to being a teenager when I was a teenager and *not* now – I did not have access to “print-on-demand” technology I had to either draw or cut out images from clip art journals and literally paste them to my master page and hope the copy machine at the public library could “read” my… Continue reading thought formations & notes for a future larger piece on corruption
