Hello, world! I’m Ricardo.

Actually, my full name is Ricardo Alberto Linares Martagón. Long, isn’t it? I blame my parents.

I’m a Creative Writer. Which means I write a lot of shit that nobody ever reads.

Well, that’s not true. Some of my short stories have been published in print and online magazines in both English and Spanish.

Nevertheless, I created this space as a necessity – can’t be writing and having everything just sit there and accumulate ‘digital dust’, as they say.

Anyways, welcome to my blog!

A phrase that defines who I am is what Fran Lebowitz said in Pretend It’s a City (2021), a documentary directed by Martin Scorsese, “What pisses me off is that I have an opinion about everything, but absolutely no power to do anything about it.”

Last but not least, suscribe to my blog! – you might end up liking it after all.
