- Why Julián chose to focus on a closeted travesti in his new novel
- Creating intergenerational trans friendships and navigating inevitable conflict
- Protesting in Bogotá and navigating Colombian gender bureaucracy
- Untranslatable Spanglish, transsexual grammar, travesti poetics, and the beautiful transfemme tradition of lying-i-mean-myth-making :)
