  My upcoming guest on PRSUN Radio is Charlie Vázquez who will chat with PRSUN Radio at 9 p.m. Wednesday, May 20. We will talk about his writings, adventures and his upcoming Hispanic Panic show on May 27 in NYC. 

  Hispanic PANIC is described as "New York City’s only running monthly queer reading series gets frisky for May, with HISPANIC PANIC! Host Charlie Vázquez has gathered a brazen roster of Latino literary talent, with an LGBT/feminist slant that is sure to shock and revel. Join him and literary ninjas Karen Jaime, Charles Rice-González, Cristina Izaguirre, Maegan ‘La Mamita Mala’ Ortiz and special guest, scholar and writer Larry La Fountain, who will be joining us from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, to promote his new book Blue Fingernails. These six writers will be presenting writing chronicling the politics and desire of Latino New York City queerness and much, much more. FREE, 21+ only."

  His bio in brief:

  
  

  Charlie Vázquez is a radical Bronx-bred, Brooklyn-based writer of Cuban and Puerto Rican descent. His fiction and essays have been published in various anthologies, such as the iconoclastic volumes, Queer and Catholic (Taylor & Francis, 2007) and Best Gay Love Stories: NYC (Alyson, 2006). His writing has also appeared in print and online publications such as Advocate.com, Chelsea Clinton News, NYpress.com, Tanglefoot, Dreck, BigFib and Mensbook Journal. Charlie hosts a monthly reading series called PANIC! (in the East Village), which focuses on unusual and original writing—from erotica to poetry to horror. He is a former contributor to the Village Voice’s Naked City blog, a retired experimental musician and photographer, and worked as an assistant to avant-garde diva Diamanda Galás, one of the world’s most controversial musicians, for two-and-a-half years.
