Short stories

 I have decided to hold from posting on this blog the short stories I've been working on until my current situation is solved.

Reason is I am facing forced isolation due to some crimes I have suffered recently. It's been already a few years now.

I have two stories already outlined on the way, plus a short film script I have written that I want to convert into another short story, since even a low cost independent production during my spare time seem to be taking too long to happen in any near future, as I'm not getting any help with isolation and legal amends. 

I'm not backing from writing them, only from posting them here for now, so please know that this silence is only temporary.

My point for making this decision is: writing fiction requires some level of isolation, but that, I understand, during a certain time slot, and I don't want this blog to become an obstacle for getting a solution to my problem. 

I'm also working in a non-fiction book which isolation hurts more than help with and I'll be focusing on another project for the next months on leisure time. Although I have plenty of other things to take care of, I must take good care of myself as well. 

Don't give me up and meanwhile keep reading my other blogs.

La Luz Es Como El Agua | Light Is Like Water | Part 1

      I wrote this short story many years ago, while I was in college and started taking Spanish language lessons in a idiom school. I wrote it as an assigment for my classes, originally in Spanish.  It's been credited to another (real?) author on the internet, with the date of 78, but it's decades younger than that.  No, I didn't ghostwrote this. My service offerings as ghostwriter is recent and much due to the situation I'm currently in, which seems like one obvious consequence of having my intellectual property used without permission. I only did two ghostwriting services in the past, as a kid. One of those resulted in a shared guard of the prize, modest for an adult, but a real treasure for two kids at that time. This story inspired in my childhood; since young age, I was interested in science and technology, hence my many screenplays in sci-fi, and was fortunate enough to get a correct explanation, thus being able to write this story.  It will be published in part

Can you confirm a short story?

       There's a short story that I love that I think it's mine, but I can't be sure for I had many of my drafts spied on and taken away. This has been happening repeatdly for years, and besides having my original pieces taken away, I've also been heard without my awareness and without my consent.      I'm absolutely sure about many pieces of work with precision of details about date and place, but, as they are many, there are some cases which I not one hundred percent positive about my authorship. And the sensation is  unsettling.       But, fortunately for me, lots of people know about it. I remembered something about this brilliant short story I've been enjoying since my teens that, in the cold light of my confirmed authorship of other works, makes me suspect it's also mine. You know which one I'm talking about. And as it happens in those cases, it's terrible thinking about that without confirmation.      That's where you come in. If you have

La Luz Es Como El Agua | Light Is Like Water | Part 2

La Luz Es Como El Agua - part 2 Read it in English      Esta aventura fabulosa fue el resultado de una ligereza mia cuando participaba en un seminario sobre la poesia de los utensilios domésticos. Totó me preguntó cómo era que la luz se encendia con sólo apretar un botón, y yo no tuve el valor de pensarlo dos veces.      La luz es como el agua - le contesté: uno abre el grifo, y sale.      De modo que siguieron navegando los miércoles en la noche, aprendiendo el manejo del sextante y la brújula, hasta que los padres regresaban del cine y los encontraban dormidos como ángeles de tierra firme. Meses después, ansiosos de ir más lejos, pidieron un equipo de pesca submarina. Con todo: máscaras, aletas, tanques y escopetas de aire comprimido.      - Está mal que tengan en el cuarto de servicio un bote de remos que no les sirve para nada - dijo el padre -. Pero está peor que quieran tener además equipos de buceo.      - ?Y si nos ganamos la gardenia de oro del primer semestre? - dijo Joel.
