From Sweet Candy Press
Celia Perez captured my heart years ago with her words that were both handwritten and typed up in her personal zine, I Dreamed I Was Assertive. When a new issue would arrive in my po box, I'd lovingly open the envelope and brace myself for the magic inside.
Celia never dissappointed me.
She is a magnificent storyteller and I am overjoyed to bring you twenty years of her writing (from various zines) in a 301-page anthology, Ofrenda. From 1994-2014, Celia documented parts of her childhood growing up in Miami and being a person of color. She has shared nostalgic stories about tradition, being a mother, dealing with loss, and the things that make her tick. It’s beautiful and real and I am thrilled it’s now documented in a perfectly bound paperback – her text, drawings, and collage work, enjoy!
