Mª Isabel Jiménez Díaz

When she went outside and started to cry she understood everything. Nobody loved her. What a feeling inside! Suddenly she realized that the first thing was loving herself.

Months later she was trying to do that.

Today one thing is certain: she is loved for her way of loving the world.

Arancha

That week was horrible. Every day the doctor TOLD us my sister was fighting for her life, she wouldn´t surrender.
Suddenly she had defeated death. At this magic moment, the best in our lives, she woke up and, amazed, told me: "What happened to your head?! It is enormous"

Manuel Ariza Canales

Ghostbuster

Since he was a boy he had noticed an invisible presence that seemed to follow him everywhere. One day he decided to capture it and began to study the alchemy of the spirits. After many attempts, a mirror was enough to see the face of his ghost. What a surprise!

The Minstrel

Dreams

Tinkerbell was in your room last night.
I saw her flying over your bed.
She looked into your drawers, played with your socks.
She went into your closet, tried your dresses on.
She was looking for your secret dreams.
She whispered, "Tell me about them – I might be of help."

Tinkerbell

Duality

There are two personalities inside you.
One is light and happy, like a brilliant bird, singing and flying all around my window in a sunny day.
The other is as deep as the ocean, mysterious, dark and thoughtful, even sad.
Who are you now? I love you both ways.

Duality

Fernando Pérez García

Growing old

"Many things have been left unsaid. You will regret it forever," she cried at me. Today, I couldn't agree more with her...
Say what you think.
Do what you feel like doing.
Live every single day of your life as if it were the last. Someday it will be so.

Rafael Becerrá

That was his first time in a stadium. Lights and cheering were all around him. The game started and he was very excited, but the outburst of happiness came when his team scored first. The moment was so intense, he would never forget it for the rest of his life.

Victoria Lozano Domingo

It is five past, I am late as usual... Ok, let's have a look: my hair is ok. Oh,  God! I hate these shoes!... My travel card, where are my keys? Here they are!!! My bag, mobile, some money and, what else? Will to live? I knew I forgot something.

Waiting and waiting for you and you don't want to join us. Sometimes, time goes by so slowly… Come on! No need to think about it! You must be very comfortable in there. It's so painful!!! Here you are! My weeping baby! Finally, you realized life is worth it.

One day in my life

Wake up, have a shower, have breakfast, make the bed, go to work, come home, have lunch, do the cleaning, iron the clothes, go to the gym, do the shopping, cook the dinner, watch TV, go to sleep... and everyday I wonder why I left my sweet home and mummy.

Nuria

It was pouring rain outside the hut. The forest was beautiful, greener than ever and it smelled of wet earth. Nobody was outside on such as unpleasant day. The beach was deserted and despite the grey clouds, the landscape was gorgeous. Despite the deep rain, the summer storm was unforgettable.

Ion Nicolae Cazacu

It's a hot day again. Nobody walks in the street at 2 pm and the only sound you hear comes from the railway station. It's a strange noise and it makes you feel bad. You hear again that noise and suddenly you realize it's dark, but hot.

Patry

Fifty words. What can you write about in fifty words? Not forty-nine words. Not fifty-one. No. Fifty. Can you write about the weather in fifty words? Sports? Some crazy story? Anything? Nothing? Do you have the slightest idea of how difficult it is to write fifty exact words? I do.

1.

He was tough on the exterior, but goofy, caring and charming on the inside. She was a hard nut to crack, both on the inside and outside, but a kind and nice person all the same.

They were partners in every sense of the word. And together they were invincible.

2.

They had been told apologizing was a sign of weakness. He had made a mistake that hurt her. He wanted to apologize, but had been taught not to. She wanted him to apologize, but he was stubborn. In the end, they did nothing, and their trust in each other broke.

3.

She had lied and he found out. She said it was to protect him, but he didn't believe her. Their trust was already shattered, so this only made things worse. She didn't apologize -- he didn't expect her to. She wanted him to understand, but he couldn't.

4.

She was taught that feelings such as love only complicated things, but she couldn't help it when she looked at him.
He always thought he would never settle down, that having a different woman every night was fun; till he met her.
But they kept doing nothing at all.

Alejandro Álvarez Valdés

I looked around at my friends' faces. We all were really scared and knew the end was near. We were thrown into a boiling pot. We struggled, trying to escape but all our efforts were in vain. Afterwards a man said: "Hey! these snails were delicious, compliments to the chef."

Vera

She got lost, no car, no mobile phone. It was dark; she needed to call home.

Suddenly, she saw a shed on that solitary road. She knocked, no answer, the door was open and she got in. A lightning lighted up the darkness and the view made her lose consciousness.

Sandra - not confirmed final version

She was alone in that dark place and nobody would help her. The hospital was in ruins and the people who worked there were dark and strange, extremely busy, but she needed to stay there and find her sister who was already in the surgery ward -- she was undergoing surgery.

R. L. - not confirmed final version

I love to see women who can hang out with friends without being supervised by a jealous husband.
I love women who are not beaten, raped or killed, who feel happy and secure.
I love women who live in freedom

I have several hobbies and interests but it is quite impossible for me to practice them regularly.
