Bio:


This is me.

When I am not running from the law or attempting to avenge wrongdoings in small, third-world countries, I spend my time writing, picnicking in forbidden places, and encouraging others to do the same. I'm descended from a Cuban dictator. I love raw things.

I'm a queer writer, painter, photographer, illustrator, actress, poet, and dancer, not to mention a recent college graduate. I wear costumes for many reasons and also for no reason at all.

You can see my photography here.

Also! My awesome younger brother is in a band called Audius. Check them out.

A note about my journal:

This journal used to be almost entirely public. However, there are things that I have started writing about (my job, for example) that while amusing and interesting cannot be left public, for obvious reasons. I have developed a series of filters - sex, writing, work, and a few others - for these non-public subjects. If you friend me (and I have not friended you already), make sure you go here and let me know, so you're not missing out on any of the Carmen awesomeness.

Also, to new and old readers alike: what are ten things I need to know about you? Tell me here. :)

Welcome.

(A note about reposting and reproduction: I often get requests to repost my writing in personal journals and communities and the like. I have no objection to this at all, but I only ask that a.) If it's a friends-locked post, you ask me first and b.) Let me know if you do! I'd love to know who's reading. :)
