 7  Abstract
 8  I created SALTA Studio out of the (almost desperate) need to tell stories. Once, I heard Alan Moore say that storytelling is almost shamanic. That it was the shamans of the Paleolithic era who started the tradition. I found that interesting, to say the least. I have many unwritten stories. I have far fewer that are written. I promise you, I have a brain full of useless information and somehow I still have room for stories within stories. Of course, none of that means they're good. They're great for me. And I can only hope someone else finds hope, or at least warm feelings, when they read them. If you find something useful here, feel free to let me know.
 9  You can figure out how to reach me.
10  You have my thanks

12  PS: If you feel like illustrating something, feel free. If you want that but in a collaboration, hit me.

14  1. Short Stories
15  A bunch of very short, badly written stories. Too personal, but I dunno what else to write.

22  Note: I have no idea why I call them short stories. They are short for sure.

24  2. Children Books
25  For some weird reason, I think kids could read my stories. Maybe that's projection, but honestly, children can handle a lot more than we adults assume.

29  Note: Someone once told me my stories were too intense and obscure for children. I'm not so sure.

31  3. Graphic Novels
32  I collect graphic novels. I've tried writing a few over the years, usually for the wrong reasons. Now I've started my own saga, and I’ve got a couple ideas for one-off graphic novels too.

38  Note: Sometimes I think I should learn to draw or learn to direct animation. My artistic limitations frustrate me.
