 I would like to work editing fiction books in a publishing house.  Although I know that journalism focuses on the news media, I am more interested in literature and fiction.  That is why I want to dedicate myself to choosing the books that a publisher will accept and modifying them to get better.  I will also be fulfilling a person's dream.

 This job would be indoors in an office, although in part I would still like to work outdoors.  Unfortunately I can't work outside with that job so I agree to work indoors in exchange for doing that beautiful job.

 I would also like to travel in my work, what is possible as an editor.  If I stand out within the publisher, I can be a contest judge and even travel to distant contests.  I would like to travel from time to time because I want to have a family in the future and have stable friends.

 I am currently studying journalism because I am interested in knowing about the current situation in the country and especially about politics.  Although I am interested in publishing fiction books, the major is so versatile that I can dedicate myself to completely different things.  Although my dream is to dedicate myself to editing fiction books, I would not mind ending up working on a radio talking about politics, as long as it is not about sports hahaha.

 Since the pandemic began, I have been learning many things online, such as how to cook cakes, cookies, and many other foods.  For this reason I decided to practice and then sell some of the things I cook. 

About two months ago I started selling a chocolate chip cake filled with nutella. It is like chocolate chip cookies because the dough is almost the same with the only difference in quantity of ingredients, baking soda and eggs.  At first I was unsuccessful, I even thought about quitting, until I managed to sell a cake.  Little by little, customers began to arrive, although I had bad weeks in which I even threw out cakes because I spent a lot of time without selling them.  Many times I thought about giving up but my sister motivated me to keep trying because nothing is achieved immediately.  So I continued until today that I sell at least one cake a day, which has helped me to pay the university.

As I felt confident of being able to sell the nutella-filled cake, about a month ago I decided to sell an oreo-style cake, that is, two brownies and a very sweet butter glaze in the center.  Although I love the taste of the cake, I have not been successful so I have looked for other foods to sell and have more variety.

Although I don't plan to do this for all my life, it has helped me get money and have fu n.

 I have many hobbies but I will talk about one: writing books. I tried to write a book for the first time when I was 8 years old with a story titled "The beaver and the chick".


Since then I have written many stories and books. The first time I finished writing a book was when I was 11 years old with a book named "Trinidad". At that time I thought the plot of the book was interesting but now I think it is quite boring, I am even ashamed.


Then I wrote "time out", a book with which the same thing happened to me.  It was the first one I sent to a publisher, although I was unsuccessful.  Since then I have written several books until I managed to publish one last year in Trayecto publishing house, the one called "Monsters and Demons". This has not had many sales nor has it become a best seller but it allowed me to fulfill my dream of being able to see a book of mine in my hands. 


I still feel happy and full when I write so I hope that soon I can publish another of my creations.
