Eventhough, we still do

You write in order to change the world, knowing perfectly well that you probably can't, but also knowing that literature is indispensable to the world... The world changes according to the way people see it, and if you alter, even by a millimeter, the way...

People look at reality, then you can change it.

Some more little matters... : We're opening a new section!

Hello guys! See, I'm here, at home and sick. Getting better through the hours, and when I have turn on the computer and I have played to POTTERMORE an idea has occurred to me, why not make a new section in the blog? One in the one I can write those things I write without a section, as the ones "Just proud because of this blog",... Well, above all this, the section's name's going to be "Some more little matters..." and in Spanish "Algunas cositas más...". 'You like it? I hope so.
I think about it as a good idea, for me to continue organizing the blog better and those, (also I liked the tittle ( : ).
Hope you write soon and give me your opinion!

Greetings,

Miriam.

Algunas cositas más... : ¡Comenzamos una nueva sección!

¡Hola chic@s! Mirad, yo estoy aquí, en mi casa. Me he levantado con dolores de tripa y demás así que adiós el colegio. Poco a poco voy a mejor y al ponerme al ordenador y tras jugar a POTTERMORE se me ha ocurrido una cosa, ¡vamos a crear una sección nueva en el blog! De vez en cuando os hablo de los avances de la página o de cosas que no son tan globales como los libros y demás... Como las entradas de orgullosa de mi página web y demás. El caso es que esta nueva sección se va a llamar "Algunas cositas más..." como ya estrena el título de esta entrada. La voy a redactar en castellano e inglés, así más gente la podrá leer. Espero que os guste, el título en inglés es: "Some more little matters...", ¿os gusta? Espero que sí.
A mí me parece una buena idea, ya que de vez en cuando os hablo de cosas así, ¡dadme vuestra opinión!

¡Un saludo!

Informativos de mi blog LVIII

¡Hola de nuevo! No voy a decir esta semana pero si este día. Lo siento pero no he tenido tiempo para escribir con las tareas del colegio y demás. De todas formas lo que os quería contar ya lo he hecho hoy y espero que me haya quedado bien.
Os he escrito sobre "The Wise Man's Fear", un libro en inglés que narra la segunda parte de la historia de Kvothe, por Patrick Rothfuss. Si estáis interesados en el libro en español podréis leer "El Nombre del Viento" ("The Name of the Wind"), pero no "El Temor un Hombre Sabio", que es el libro del que os he hablado porque  no sale hasta el 3 de Noviembre.
Más cosas... También os he escrito en "Noticias para niños" o "Kids news" sobre el 59 Festival de Cine de San Sebastián que ha tenido lugar esta semana pasada. Si fuisteis espero que os gustara y si no podéis entrar en la página del evento que he adjuntado a la noticia para poder saber un poco más de ello.

Eso es todo, ¡un saludo!

English books: The Wise Man's Fear

Hello guys! I'm so sorry for leaving the blog for a time so long but in my school the Professors might think that we don´t have enough homework for keeping us "happy". You know, we're fed up with homework! But the thing is that at this right moment I have some time for writing you about a book I finished decades ago (more than one week). This one's "The Wise Man's Fear", the second part of the Kingkiller Chronicle. The first "day" was "The Name of the Wind" and I wrote you about it too. For you to remember, it talks about Kvothe's story, a young boy that finds his parents and his whole Edema Ruh troupe dead by the Chandrian, very dangerous people. Kvothe enters to the University at a very young age and he starts being an "interesting" person. He lives lots of adventures and those.
The book is tolled by Kvothe him shelve, when he gets older.
In this second part Kvothe goes out from the University for a while. He goes to Vintas, looking for a patron and he starts finding him shelve with important people. During this time he helps a noble with a women and he goes to find some bandits that stole his mayor treasures.
He also spends time with Felurian, one of the Fae and lots of more things.
Are you looking forward to reading it? I hope so because it's an amazing book!
I leave you some of the critics for "The Name of the Wind":

"It is a rare and great pleasure to find a fantasist writing not only with the accuracy of language that is essential to fantasy-making, but with true music in the words as well. Wherever Pat Rothfuss goes with the big story that begins with THE NAME OF THE WIND he'll carry us with him as a good singer carries us through a song."
---- Ursula K. Le Guin, bestselling author and winner of the National Book Award

"As with all the very best books in our field, it's not the fantasy trappings (wonderful as they are) that make this novel so good, but what the author has to say about true, common things, about ambition and failure, art, love and loss."
---- Tad Williams, New York Times bestselling author of Shadowmarch, Otherland, and Memory, Sorrow and Thorn


What can I leave you of my invention?
"An AMAZING book, with all the letters. This is one of those books that when you have them open and your eyes are slipping through their infinitive words you forget the world, the problems and your shelve. You start being the character and you stop being human, you become a paper person. With Kvothe, I left my shelve behind and I started being a minstrel, a boy with an ambition, with loads of problems and... with a destiny, thought I still don't know what it is when I open these books."
----Miriam Huárriz, writer of "Historias de Miriam" and future bestselling author with her book in process

Well, I think I have said everything with that critic, EVERYTHING. I just assure you that if you're a good reader you're going to enjoy the experience being a bandit, an Arcanist, a Bloodless... and also enjoying that you can't be harm experiencing all the adventures and dangerous matters our Kvothe goes by during this volume.

I am leaving you the official page for Patrick Rothfuss, the author:
And three good videos on Patrick Rothfuss and his books, on "The Wise Man's Fear" and the link to a page in Spanish:
