Escuela de Escritores

Bienvenido a Escuela de Escritores: un centro literario cuya actividad principal es la enseñanza de la escritura, tanto en su faceta más creativa (narrativa, poesía, cine, blogs, etc.), como en lo que se refiere a la corrección estilística y gramatical. Si te gusta escribir, leer o, simplemente, compartir tus inquietudes literarias, seguro que te vas a sentir como en casa.

En Escuela de Escritores tenemos claro que la escritura es sobre todo un oficio, un oficio que se puede y se debe aprender. Un oficio que, practicado con gozo, se convierte en un juego; un oficio que, realizado con maestría y talento, se convierte en arte. Enseñar este oficio es nuestra razón de ser.

Roberto Bolaño

For most of his early adulthood, Bolaño was a vagabond, living at one time or another in Chile, Mexico, El Salvador, France and Spain. Bolaño moved to Europe in 1977, and finally made his way to Spain, where he married and settled on the Mediterranean coast near Barcelona, working as a dishwasher, a campground custodian, bellhop and garbage collector — working during the day and writing at night.

This was confirmed by Jorge Herralde, who explained that Bolaño "aband
