Join the Yale Latino Networking Group and the LGBTQ Affinity Group for a poetry reading event with D.L. Cordero. D.L. Cordero is a published sci-fi fantasy author, occasional poet, and horror dabbler working out of Denver, Colorado. As a nonbinary, queer, Puerto Rican person, they utilize an intersectional approach when writing, incorporating they/them pronouns, Spanish-English hybridization, and characters from a wide range of sexual orientations, genders, races, and abilities.
Cordero aims to write intriguing stories that center characters from marginalized communities, without making identity the crux of the story, thereby disrupting the pervasive narrative that all minorities do in books is struggle with who they are. Their work has been published by Borderless Magazine, Prometheus Dreaming Magazine, Post Journal, and on their website dlcordero.com. You can follow them on social media @dlcorderowrites.
