Loteria at Moon Milk Review

I am so happy to have my short fiction piece, Loteria, at Moon Milk Review. Moon Milk Review, edited by Rae Bryant and countless other talented people, is one of my favorite journals. It's always consistent and always interesting, so I'm humbled that the second piece of fiction of mine has been accepted and published.

Here's a sample from the story, which is vaguely about God, death, elevators and cake:

Everyone kept talking about that damn elevator. What’s so great about that elevator?

      One day, I started listening to what people were saying about it:

      I heard it has a great tall ceiling made of mirrors, and your reflection is never flawed.

      I heard it goes vertical and horizontal.

     Two lions guard the way. They are not mean, but they are very loud.

     O no, no, no. It has been broken for years.

     I noticed more and more people were talking about the elevator after the town of Sirena decided to have La Reflexión every night after sunset. La Reflexiónmeant everyone would have to think of their sins. Suddenly, everyone was sinning and talking about each other’s sins. Everyone laughed at their neighbors, comparing their sins to those of the others. Some people ate cake and talked about their sins. La Reflexión was working.
