A bit of background: I have published two poetry collections currently available on Amazon, and I have one book of fables currently in the design stage (designing the actual physical book) which is also being translated (it is both in Spanish and in English).

My goal is to develop more fables based on stories my grandmother told me when I was a child growing up in Mexico. I want to develop a second book of fables. I also wish to start collecting stories from the local Icelanders, and with those stories a portrait of the storyteller as well.

I always travel with a camera, but writing is the greater goal of this residency, and i look forward to taking full advantage of it.
