I am your Editor in Chief, Steven Quevedo. I am Mexican-American.
More primitively, my family is from Castilla y Leon, Spain– by way of hundreds of years in Mexico. Yet my “Spanish” side includes the Spanish, the Jewish, and a small part African. The African part, as well, is itself ethnic– a particular ethnic group.
I’m also from indigenous northern Mexico, from various tribes. As a mestizo, because the Mexican Spanish side is mixed with the culture of the Mexican North, I descend from the culture known as norteño.
As you could see, I could write an entire post about my genealogy– not an empty promise, I hope. But, that´s the main deets.
I have a doctorate in Philosophy, and was a Philosophy major with a double minor in Politics and East Asian Studies. I’m a life-long student of the philosophies of Ancient Greece and East Asia, of American, Native American and Mexican cosmologies, and of European philosophies. These latter include ethics, romanticism, the German Enlightenment, philosophy “of science,” “of art,” “of religion,” “of comparative religion,” and “of anthropology,” all from a non-reductive perspective. More on that, later.
Information on my current writing projects can be found in Works in Progress. My primary writing interests are Philosophy, related popular non-fiction, and related fiction in the fantasy/sci-fi/up market fiction hybrid genre. I will keep you posted on these works as they progress.
