“What I love most about working with Marcela is her incredible honesty and generosity. She is your advocate. She wants you to be the best writer you can be and will share everything she knows to help you on your journey. Marcela is the real deal and I can’t wait to work with her again!”—Linda Nieves-Powell, author of the short story “The Fly Ass Puerto Rican Girl from the Stapleton Projects” published in the anthology Staten Island Noir
