Love and Literature with Keiselim Montás and Kianny Antigua

Kianny Antigua and Keiselim Montás, or Keysi, are both writers. They are both published and acclaimed — and they’re married.

Many famous artistic couples have tried to strike the balance of literature and love: F. Scott Fitzgerald and Zelda Fitzgerald, Georgia O’Keefe and Alfred Stieglitz, Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera... but a lot of those relationships weren’t exactly even-keeled.

A relationship between creative people must function both romantically and artistically.

It's not easy. How do Kianny and Keysi do it?
