Carlos Ruiz Zafón

54. Write an e-mail to my favorite author.


First I had to determine who my favorite author was.
The first name that popped into my mind was José Saramago.  The only problem is that he is dead.
Next on the list was Fernando Pessoa. Hum… Dead!
Finally I thought of Carlos Ruiz Zafón. He is a fantastic Spanish writer. Everyone should read his books. They’re so well written, mysterious and surprising. I feel that nowadays it’s quite difficult to find all of these qualities in the same person. But there is one small problem. I just can’t find his e-mail address. However I found out that he has a Facebook page.  I’ve decided to just leave a message on his wall saying what I wanted to say.

This is what I wrote to him:

“Dear Mr. Carlos Ruiz Záfon,
I’m one of the many people that your books have touched.  Your writing skills are mesmerizing and your stories are always captivating, surprising, mysterious and heartfelt.  It’s absolutely impossible to put down one of your books once you start reading it.
I am definitely looking forward to your next books and the translation of your first three books to Portuguese.
Please, keep up the good work!”


That was it! I bet he won’t read it but whatever.
