Jorge Sanchez is a Puerto Rican–American writer whose work blends emotional intimacy, cosmic wonder, and the everyday humanity of people you meet when you’re not rushing through life. A lifelong storyteller who discovered writing later in his journey, Sanchez brings a rare voice to science fiction—one shaped by family, culture, travel, and the belief that human connection is its own kind of superpower. His debut novel, The Data Gardeners, is a genre-bending mix of sci-fi, philosophy, humor, and heart. Told through 10,000 journal entries collected across the world, it explores what happens when an ordinary Puerto Rican man finds himself entangled in the subtle cosmic work of guiding humanity forward. Readers praise the book for its warm, conversational tone, its Latino-coded storytelling, and characters like Boo-boo and Chanito—men who defy macho stereotypes and embrace vulnerability, friendship, and complicated love. Before fiction, Sanchez wrote personal essays rooted in Puerto Rican family life, memory, and chaos. His first collection, Sanchez 5 Inbound, became the foundation for the voice that now defines his novels: witty, honest, culturally grounded, and always focused on the small truths that make people feel seen. When he’s not writing, Sanchez is probably traveling, drinking tea, people-watching, or getting lost in conversations with strangers who might someday end up as characters. He lives in the northeastern U.S., still answering to the nickname “the missing Sanchez”—proof that family lore always catches up to you. Follow him for updates on upcoming books, behind-the-scenes notes, and whatever Boo-boo decides to do next.
