Lo primero que dijo Juan cuando se despertó ayer

An interactive flash fiction story

Brrrrring. Juan opens one eye and gropes for the alarm clock: it is 7.29 in the morning. A very short story with a big message behind it, where readers have to use all their imagination to follow along.

How it started

The night before I turned 30, I started taking stock. I remembered the saying that in life you should have a child, plant a tree and write a book, and realised I was two short. I had a few hours left to do it before turning 30.

I already had the child. I planted the tree that same night, online, with Trees for Life. Then I sat down to write: in about three hours the book was written, edited and published on Amazon. I went to bed aged 29 with all three done.

Mi papá trabaja en Marketing

A tale where dad gets leads, dodges dragons… and is back for dinner

Charts, leads and campaigns turned into dragons, enchanted castles and secret missions. Short chapters, illustrations and a glossary at the end, for children aged 4 to 12.

Why I wrote it

One day at home, my kids asked me what I was doing for so many hours at the computer and in meetings. I told them I work in marketing, and their faces told me that did not mean much to them. I understood: the same happened to me in secondary school, where nobody ever explained what marketing was.

I wanted them to know what their dad spends so many hours on, so I told them the way I know best: with a story. The book follows a working day in marketing, but it also shows what it is like to work with other teams that play an important role in Marketing, such as the Sales and Legal teams.
