‘sup.
My name is Daniel Sanchez-Torres and I’m a writer and independent editor.
I’ve written journalistic essays, features, interviews and round-ups for The Creative Independent, 48hills, Xtra Magazine, The Conversationalist, Vice Magazine and more.
I wrote a triptych of X-rated essays called, “Cruising Diaries by the King of Sex” about sex after pandemic, which is now available for pre-order.
As an independent editor, I’ve edited both fiction and non-fiction book-length projects that have gone on to be published by Bloomsbury YA and Harvard University Press. I have also edited short stories, magazine essays, and profiles that have gone on to be published in The Washington Post, and The Cut.
The best way to keep up with the work I’m doing is to subscribe to my newsletter, Rough Draft. I share new work; the rough drafts of projects I’m working on; insights and explorations into process and craft; conversations with other artists and colleagues; and special projects.

*a note about reaching out: I am not currently available for pro-bono work. I am open to bartering and/or collaborations.
*an additional note for artists and creatives: Please reach out.
Tell me who you are, what you are exploring in your work, why you are working in the medium of your choice, and why it matters.
I am especially interested in hearing from black, brown, indigenous, asian, and middle eastern artists and/or creatives based in the San Francisco Bay Area whose work has a social work component and/or is presented in unconventional spaces.
