News

I have been in the middle of reviews and other literary duties, which are pleasing my present time with a "full" sensation. :) For example, very soon I will publish the third part of my trilogy "A través del Portal", which will have "Retornos" as a subtitle. With this new volume my trilogy will be finished at last and I can focus in other projects.

Meanwhile, I am planning to send another short story to a new literary contest, which I have not written yet, by the way, and I have to write my third "perverse" story for a new writers' "club": (Per)Versiones Literarias (New versions or strange new versions of literary pieces). So far I have written two stories: one is a new version of Sleepy Beauty and the other one is a new version of a historic episode (alternate history). This strange club will publish in June its first "baby":

(Per)Versiones: -Cuentos Populares-
This is an anthology of 26 short stories, written by a group of writers who use to visit Sedice.com, a literary portal dedicated to science fiction, fantasy, horror and other literatures. We meet there to discuss about books, to share our own stories and to help each other in this difficult world of publishers and books. Then, one day someone sugested that we could collect our own versions of traditional stories with monsters, or a SF point of view or a new perspective. And we did it.

Now we present this original anthology with 26 short stories written by 26 writers (some with previous experience, some with none), which will be launched next June for everyone wishing to read something different. Later, in a few months, we will be able to launch the second volume: (Per)Versiones Históricas, which will have 23 short stories telling a different way to know History. :)
