“…you don't have the time (or the tools) to write,” says Stephen King ‘On Writing’—and I do actually take this advice/reminder very thoughtfully. This video is a first experimentation of something new for this channel: some personal physician-writer commentaries about the journey of being one (particularly from Chile.) And my first words about it just had to be about the importance I attribute to reading.

“Read, read, read. Read everything—trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it.” —William Faulkner.

Hello, there!

For those who are new to this channel:

I'm Leonardo Espinoza Benavides (a.k.a Leo Espinoza), Chilean Medical Doctor & Science Fiction Author. Chile has a rich tradition in science fiction literature, all the way back to the 19th century, but most of it can only be found in Spanish. I created this channel as a platform for non-Spanish speakers to find out more about this particular Chilean scene, and about my own work as an author, editor and enthusiast of the genre. I’m also currently serving as a director of Chile’s SF Society (ALCIFF), and I’m an associate member of the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA). This is my passion! I love creating community, so I’ll be more than delighted to get in touch with you. English is not my first language, so forgive me in advance if I happen to say any weird sounding stuff.

See you around!
