Unfinished Portrait


A few days ago, my Hermana Luivette Resto, released her first collection of poetry, Unfinished Portrait. It is a collection seven years in the making and documents her evolution, literary and personal. Lu and I met as pre-frosh at Cornell University in the summer of 1995. After a fight in '96 (*wink*) we were bonded for life.  

She is one of my greatest cheerleaders, critics and fellow writers. I am immensely proud of the words she has put out into the world. It's just the beginning but I encourage you to check out her work, her site, and get a copy of the book

Cheers to you Ms. Ilanisiw, I can't wait to join you on the shelf. But you'll always be "The Illest." =)
