Pregúntale a la Bruja ("Ask The Witch") is a recipe book that features delicious plant-based recipes with a side of trauma-informed insights and flavors from the fogón. Aside from being a 100% vegan recipe book, it also guides the reader through the physiological effects of each recipe and its ingredients in ways that have been proven to support their mental health. This is a manuscript that is still in progress and open to interested agents.

Finding an agent has been the biggest challenge for this manuscript because this book, while being predominantly a recipe book, it also touches upon topics like trauma, recovery, sustainability and justice. In order to make it more accessible, I've expanded my platform so as to simplify the book and provide additional resources about trauma recovery (for example) through other projects like my Patreon page.

Goals/Requirements: • Reach the right audience (food lovers, vegans, sustainability enthusiasts, survivors). • Convey the body as an (accessible) archive. • Show sustainable eating as an achievable venture.

This project is the result of years of research, trial and error, as it comes to recipes, and also to family history and colonial history. While finding an agent has proven tricky, finding an audience has been much more of a straight shot, as many Latinx and Caribbean diaspora yearn to learn recipes that taste and smell like home.

This manuscript is set to be finished in 2023. Photos, teasers and clips coming soon.

Food unites people to each other and to the planet.
