I'm a Portuguese novelist and a TV promo writer. In 2005, I received the PEN CLUB award for a first novel. In 2013, I took the risk of writing in English for the first time and I started with a screenplay. It worked, somehow. I was awarded with Bronze in the Barcelona International Film Festival and I was a finalist at the Hollywood Screenplay Contest, Madrid International Film Festival and Amsterdam International Film Festival, among some other minor contests. But that winner screenplay isn't good enough. I want to write stories that entertain and inspire the entire world. Stories that will make you laugh and cry. Perhaps at the same time.
