In ¿Santifornication? The author presents his vision of life with a teenager as the protagonist and many casual encounters between characters. It is not, however, a novel, because the author has decided to launch into the world of letters with a Book of stories that mix various stories and, why not, genres. Among them, the Erotic genre. “I do not want the book to label as erotic,” said Chema Blanco on occasion. Thus, we will not catalog it as such, although we do have to comment on it, because sex also seems to be present among these stories.
We especially like the impetus of this writer when continuing, the redundancy is worth, writing. After a break of life, instead of surrendering, he continued to consolidate his vocation until In 2023 he published with indie books ¿Santifornication? He has also participated in anthologies and now prepares new works, among her, a theater and a novel in Gallego that will soon see the light, if the publishing world wants.
On the editorial world we have also talked to him and confesses that his return to it has not been easy. Says that The industry has changed a lot since it started writing. «At that time (I was young and stupid) I had an incipient career as a writer. It flowed naturally, without realizing it. I published small projects in different media (fanzines, radio, short films, some theater …), I began to hear my name in editorial circles, I made contacts, I opened doors. But I was forced to park that career for personal circumstances. And over the years everything that had been achieved was lost. “
We have taken, finally, the license to curly some review about ¿Santifornication? And I like one especially, of the director of Interkultural, Oscar curroswho says that Chema Blanco’s work is Cortita, but playful. He talks about the book as a series of chaotic stories, which puzzle, united by the thread of lust. And then, Chema, you don’t want us to talk about the eroticism of your work … 😉
