PEPPER Magazine
SA / TX / US
Est. 2022

“I'll be placing a strong emphasis on community, sustainability, conscientious businesses, activism, human rights, mental health, inclusion and facilitating a safe space for open discussion of difficult issues. There is no other publication like what I'm formatting here in San Antonio and its surrounding areas.

I intend to lean heavily on my experience as a mental health professional just as much as my skill as a photojournalist to curate raw, beautiful, messy, emotional and uplifting stories from people of all walks and professions. As a female autist with ADHD and being part of the LGBTQ community, I intend to highlight marginalized communities and those living with disabilities and varied neurotypes as well. Essentially creating an artful mirror that offers another way to look at each other and build compassion and interest.

And of course it won’t be heavy all the time. There will be features exploring local businesses, hip eats, entertainment and creative hubs. Essentially everything San Antonio is about, as well as arts, music and performance submissions nationally and globally.”

About

K. Day Gomez

“My name is Kathleen, editor in chief of PEPPER Magazine. For PEPPER, I am also CEO, creative director, artist, photojournalist, copy writer, social media manager and staff manager. I am a neurodivegent mother, wife and wearer of many hats.

My career life is a bit of a juggling act. I’m an internationally published artist, author, creative consultant and intuitive life coach. I formerly ran a magical online boutique called The Imaginarium Wonder Emporium. And I sit on the Advisory Board of the Alora Farm nonprofit for adult autists.

I’ve been a photojournalist, art illustrator and content writer for various publications and blogs for over two decades.
I formerly held a modeling career for over 17 years that led to acting and directing, which I still may pursue in the future.

My brilliant son is diagnosed autistic with a cognitive disability and is an internationally published artist himself. My husband is an amazing chef for his business, NOVEM Cuisine and I’m happy to be his occasional culinary assistant. My boys are the center of my world.

As a family, we are philanthropists. We always seek to be of the most help to our community and global humanitarian issues any way we can. You’ll find us enjoying beautiful San Antonio and the Alamo Heights area where we reside. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me. I look forward to connecting.”

Guy Wednesday Books

Who in the world is Guy Wednesday?

American artist and writer K. Day Gomez has always had a sense of humor and much of her work carries with it a touch of irony.

"​Many of my friends know that Guy Wednesday has been my pen name since my teen years in 1998.
It’s since become the umbrella for my children's books…and not so grown up books for grownups."
