Todos leemos y escribimos desde un lugar (cultural, social, retórico, etc.) y ser cada vez más conscientes de ello ayuda a volvernos no sólo más lúcidos de nosotros mismos, sino a desarrollar de un modo más personal nuestra propia escritura. Si deseas ensayar o desde ya cultivas este género, mediante una conexión virtual leeremos juntos tus poemas, potenciaremos tu producción literaria y publicaremos tu trabajo en este portal o en otros semejantes.
