A brown stucco colored graphic with a photo of a green agave plant growing from the bottom. Over this background is a photo of cover of The Remedy is the Disease by Leticia Urieta. In white text at the top of the page it says The Remedy is the Disease by Leticia Urieta. Around the cover of the book are white arrows and text describing aspects of the book including Revenge Plots, Magical Realism, Experimental Narratives, Grief Horror, Medical Trauma Survivors, Fighting for Autonomy, Folklore, Disabled Bodies Battling Capitalism and Body Horror.
“Urieta’s eighteen-piece collection from Undertaker treats chronic illness as protagonist, not victim, weaving Tejana folklore, medical rage, and dark satire into prose that goes for the throat and the heart in the same breath.”
Here are some other ways that you can help me to promote my book (and other indie writers):
Buy a copy if you can.
Share the book with your loved ones.
If you love your local library or independent bookstore, you can request that they stock a copy.
Nominate my book(s) for your next book club read!
If you or anyone you know reviews books, you can request an copy from me to review! You can also review my books on Storygraph and Fable!
I am still booking for 2026 events, so if you have a bookstore, community organization or space you would like for me to provide a workshop or reading/event for, comment or reach out via my contact page on my website to plan further!
I hope to see you at the reading on July 16th, and thank you for your support!
