According to some writers, the complete five pages a day is a good handicap. Some contemporary even dared to say that a perfect paragraph is sufficient. What does the rest of the time? They can plan writing or meditating, watching movies, teaching the craft or playing golf. Iain Banks, for example, type furiously for six months and the rest he spends on vacation. A real lucky.
For my part, but not to the letter, follow the precept of García Márquez's wait for inspiration to work.
Five A4 pages, double spaced, size 11, is the size of "Marketing." A day's work. Not bad. (Another correction, of course) The inspiration had come from the hand of a notice in the newspaper. Police Story Contest organized by "La Voz del Interior, Cordoba, Argentina.
Why not?, I thought. I have several plots, more or less made, originally published in the form of comics. I just have to move some of them. I do not have a chance of winning. Suspected fraud in the contests. And even if it were not, people like Juan Sasturain, Ricardo Piglia, Mempo Giardinelli and others can bring their mite generously as those who do not want the thing. What makes an award more or less? Everyone should have some archiving unprecedented three-month extension may be bright as the pan from the puloil. The thing was complicated.
Still, she might like someone, I thought. The awards are three, but published the twelve shortlisted. The number twelve was more than fine for me. And the publication in the newspaper, let alone.
Finally, the jury Silvia Iparaguirre, Luis Guzman and Editor in Chief gave a "Marketing" in second place. A plaque carved in 1500 mangos / dollar, a vernissage with snacks, a short story to a reporter, hugs, and a tour of the brand new presses.
My proud bearing of the time contrasted with the emotional attitude that fell upon hearing the news from across the line. He had won a prize. Then the contests were not all fixed.

not checked yet, but literary theory should occupy the same amount of volumes that the fiction of that study. Nor do I have any idea that should have been written in these 2300 years since the publication of "The Poetics." One, of dubious scholarship, compared novel I have a boxing match. The first should win on points, the second by KO, perhaps validated by the momentum of his youth compared to other short forms as fable.
Regarding the story, one of the most famous is the "Iceberg Theory", outlined by Hemingway. States that should only be seen (or read) a seventh of the event, what matters is what is not said, what is omitted. The demonstrated in "The murderers. " Rodolfo Walsh tried to "that woman." Enough examples.
However, the police, this seems to suffer a reversal of terms. What should be displayed in excess. Winding are planted false clues. In some, even their casting can be almost as large as that of a novel.
So heavy tangle of intrigue that forces the iceberg to sink its peak, for launching, during the "mise en scene, its huge base of fossilized shellfish and algae withered. By definition, any theory is plausible refutation.

also be noted Edgar Allan Poe as the originator of the modern short story, so is the police and sniffing its antecedents in the Gothic style of Horace Walpole, ghosts apart. However, American crime fiction seems to have other records, traced to the stories of Francis Bret Harte, where gangs of lawless bandits whipping across the West. We see it in the inaugural novel "Red Harvest", 1939, by Dashiell Hammett.
was agreed that the Modern Black Novel is the daughter of pre-war capitalism. Denounces abuses, the concentration of wealth, social corruption. The crime is committed for or against these forces. The hero, meanwhile, does not rely entirely institutions. Move it his personal ambitions, between whom there is always money, but vigilante justice.
But what is the "Argentine police? On that occasion, the chronicler of "La Voz del Interior" spread the good health of the genre. Twice Week Editorial Gijón with Umbriel, yes, the editor of "The Da Vinci Code" in English-Argentines rewarded by Rolo Diez "Papel Picado" and Guillermo Orsi for "Dog Dreams." Need more names? Juan Sasturain, Jorge Manzur, Black Tizziani, Juan Carlos Martini, Jose Pablo Feinmann-and-follow signatures form a checkerboard negligible for a South American country.
Carlos Gamerro or Daniel Link, with Sasturain, although the latter modestly call it "Decalogue", strive to develop a theory of narrative "noir" vernacular with more than one match between them.
For example, if the crime novel has its roots in the American West, ours should have them in the Pampa. Only our cowboy "Martin Fierro" rather than wear a star on the chest is a deserter from compulsory levies. That is, your character must be a marginal.
Another condition would be that if not the police who committed the crime, at least occurs with his consent. The points are and they are still funny and many accurate. In pursuit of realism required by the police, the story of Argentina must be written under those conditions.
however, rule out the experiments as "Breathing" or more ago, the deductive "Don Isidro Parodi." Actants, the stories of entresiglo in the sense "Proppian" of the term-no variants are too many Americans. Etchenique, star of "Perderores Manual" originally written in serial fashion for a newspaper, you may continue to be a retired, but first and foremost a detective.
structures or in relation to almost all accounts kept strictly that of the nineteenth-century novel, is finally adopted by the mainstream cinema, it tells what you want to tell.
In definitive, I understand the rules to write a credible police story as an attempt Argentine dissection and not as a massed forward. What genre stiffen while, according to Juan Jose Saer, all literature is experimental?
A single police has been best seller in recent years although it can not be described as "hardboiled" or "black." It was the Premio Planeta 2003 "Crimes Imperceptible" Guillermo Martínez.
By having to Oxford as a backdrop, Alex de la Iglesia knew he could sell it as a film for whites. The Frodo Elijah Wood was the letter. A good product, maybe the best so far by the English director.
addition to the software flaw to chat (well) on literature in Telefé, Juan Saturain directs the collection of novels "Black Absolute", which to date has released two titles. A spiritual boost from here.
Still, do not see a body with a history of coaching as American crime fiction, and here, yes, I think, lies the difference. Even in Spain there is an honorary award for best crime novel published during the year and have won for an American to a French. The British detective writers associations are more than one.
to ours, I see more as voluntarism genaracionales isolated as pivots. Perhaps the market is smaller. Perhaps, the tenth of the total U.S. population that we do not generate as many writers, and less police. Perhaps, publishers are encouraged to publish unknown. Perhaps not known to write a police encourage.
I do not feel the same conviction of journalist from "La Voz del Interior." But beware, the Argentine detective story is not dead. As always, the best is yet to be written.
