Perhaps we could say that this text is the result of an appraisal meeting. However, valuation meetings often leave a dry and bittersweet taste in the mouth. It's a sunny Tuesday afternoon. 16:53. We've connected to the valuation meeting, and we've decided to put a lemon candy in his mouth.

The order of the topic was determined a long time ago: our 3. The issue, the influence of the columns of LA LUZ, the round of feelings, on April 10th at 7:00 pm Library Reading Club (hehe, you have eaten the publicity), the presentation of the issue (??????) and face to face (???? ).

Much to say and work even more, little time. The months have passed and the situation, paradigm or whatever, is completely different. We started school but now we’re hippies, we don’t believe in exams or exercises. This has also taught us a couple of lessons:

- It is better to start from the quality of the challenge, because we all have something to say at our disposal.

- Content, load and meaning are inherent to those who deserve to be told.

- If we're not writers, what we've written isn't just ours.

"Writing for restoration is not a deficient philosophy, the work often consists in abandoning old modus operandi and finding new ways to build"

Finding the right words is not a difficult task, but it is a difficult task to find out how to say them. Writing for restoration is not a deficient philosophy, the work often consists of abandoning old modus operandi and finding new ways to build. To say the least, it is often as difficult as it seems to be, and from this trench of LA LUZ we have loaded eleven. Without having to dust off, put the bullet in the shotgun, and... Boom!

The birds pause for a moment... and everyone starts screaming at the same time. We could say that the usual silence is over, among many other things this has also changed. We had the chance to buy a sixth shotgun as well as a point of view.

You could have put the column on, even if we had put the load on the grain that just stood up. Now that we have “new” to the third one, that WhatsApp has been filled with (half) messages of happiness, we dare to say that the last one has been different from the other two copies, and that we have said things correctly, and all those positive things that those who thought we were making music have accepted us.

And the time has come to reflect on what we do again, supongo. What comes next, what we'll do next. For now, we know that pointing more directly, pointing even if it’s with the finger, that we like it and we try to do it, if that’s something. We are also looking forward to a positive assessment of the evaluation meeting.

As the need calls, we have gone out of the call one by one, between “see you later” and “tell me!” because the next one will also come. By the time we've lowered the computer cover, the candy in the mouth is long gone.

The Haunting House of Haster. Arraioz, homosexuality, Madrid
"That I needed things clean, and that I knew clearly from the tick-tick what I wanted, what attracted me"
It is the stepping stone of the Larretxe, next to the axe, the stone lifters, the chinga bearers and, in general, the great popular sportsmen. Patxi is his father, while Donato is his uncle. The Haunted Man is a social worker, a writer, a homosexual. We should all be proud.
