Writer, director, and storyteller, Andi Teran talks to the nest about her life as a writer and life’s latest series of plot twists, the ups and downs on her journey toward recovery from a breast cancer diagnosis. Teran is the author of the wonderful coming of age novel, Ana of California, a Latinx version of Anne of Green Gables. On this episode, she talks to us about being born in El Paso, being a Mexi-Texican Yorker en Cali, her early days in NYC, where inspiration was everywhere, and about what it means to choose “visibility over vanity,” and “voice over silence.”
