Short Story: "El Viaducto"#

A while ago, I followed a weekend course on shorty story writing, which was really fun to do! Not only did I get to learn some interesting theory around writing and how stories are built up, but of course we were supposed to write something as well.

I started from an object (a weird sort of sunglasses), mixed that with a location I just visited (Madrid and a specific bridge I remembered from there) and let my imagination do the rest. We gradually built the story up as we learnt more and more and at the end of the weekend I had a nice little story. After some rework and a feedback session and some more rework I think I'm pretty much finished so here goes (Dutch only I'm afraid)...

El Viaducto

Let me know what you think!

This is my personal website, not my boss', not my mother's, and certainly not the pope's. My personal opinions may be irrelevant, inaccurate, boring or even plain wrong, I'm sorry if that makes you feel uncomfortable. But then again, you don't have to read them, I just hope you'll find something interesting here now and then. I'll certainly do my best. But if you don't like it, go read the pope's blog. I'm sure it's fascinating.
