All the texts I’ve recently published in The Slow Burn have been born from a desire to share and inspire. I emphasize this because I recognize that it wasn’t always like this. In the past, when I called myself a publicist and entrepreneur, my writing was often driven by a need to build my personal […]
Today begins at ArteCine Lindora the OPENHOUSE, an option for the ill-mannered like me, as it takes messages from conversational speakers from the United States, and projects them on the movie screen in an activity that does not exceed 60 minutes. Thus, [...]
From Mosaic in Pasadena, Erwin McManus, the lead pastor of one of the most creative churches in the United States, www.mosaic.org, will visit us next week. In his proposal, art, film, dance, music of course, creativity and innovation play a key role [...]
With only three weeks to go before the last date for publications or guidelines for the Pregonero and the Volcán, the season of truchos in our country begins, so it is convenient to read La Teja among other chosen media. These days, [...]
