Love and Death travel together. Life is a Story - story.one

G. S. Alsen

For G. S. Alsen (Caracas, 1993), words have always been an escape: to visit new worlds by reading, and to create them by writing. As a kid, she spent countless hours in books, and this passion marked her path to becoming a lawyer and using words as tools. In her adult life, thousands of kilometers away from everything she knew, matters of love and death are constant visitors, and words are -more than ever- a lifeline.

She believes reality and dreams -even nightmares- can exist in the same space, on the same page. Her stories portray love as the brave main character, and death as the unwanted reminder of our own limits.

On her bookshelf, the books she bought and has not read yet stare in disbelief at the dog-eared copies of 'Dracula' and 'Pride and Prejudice', which she keeps picking up whenever needed.
