Manifesto 365 Days of Literature
Imagine what it's like to have every day a different jewel left on your door during the next 365 days of your life. Each of these jewels crafted to be better than the one from the previous day, better than any jewel that exists in the world, worked to have the best glow, the best material, the best art. During the next 365 days I will be your jeweler, your craftsman, your sculptor, your writer. In these 365 days, in every moment of my life, in every breath that I will take, in every look that I will launch to the world, I will be looking for a literary jewel to give to you.
Each of these moments will be a quest for beautiful literature, for the right expression, the germinal idea, for the insightful thought, the warm words, the perfect short story.

In these 365 days of my life, my concern will be what I'll give you to read. What will it taste like, what message it will pass, in what state of mind it will leave you, will it be too much, should I have given you more, maybe on day x you will be in the mood for a lightweight text, or a more solemn, perhaps a meditative, perhaps a serious one, maybe one with a funny tone, or one that will show you how beautiful life is!
In these 365 days of my life I will be a channel that takes the best, the most important, the most beautiful, the most constructive, the most educational, the most passionate in all that surrounds as to you. My function will be to absorb everything and then filter the cream of everything and deliver to you.
This is a challenge, the biggest challenge I've set myself to, an creativity exercise of gigantic proportions.
This challenge implies a constant reinvention of my writing, my personality and the very definition of what a short story is and of what literature is. I’m speaking about 365 different short stories (or literary articles), 365 short stories with my signature, so 365 texts that I consider perfect. I’m speaking about texts that I want to leave to the world so that they persist for many generations.

During these 365 days I intend to stretch the limits of my capabilities as a human, as a person, as a citizen and as a writer.
