Literary meeting with Irene Marín Jiménez. 2018-19.
"We are all potential writers."
Nothing better to close Book Day than a very interesting literary meeting with a writer as special as Irene Marín, teacher and director of CEIP Sierra Bermeja who studied at our school from 2nd grade to Baccalaureate. That is why she began by sharing anecdotes from her student years at our school, while she recalled many of the pleasant memories she has of Alborán and her teachers. Her visit is a true honor for us, because in addition to being a former student, she is the daughter of one of our most beloved ladies, Doña Maricarmen Jiménez.
This tireless reader has seen her dream come true with the publication of her first book "When the sun kissed the sea", a work that combines history and adventure and captivates the reader from the beginning. For more than five years she has been documenting herself so that we can enjoy this exciting work, which is basically a tribute to the Costa del Sol, an area that has traces of past civilizations, but that not everyone knows about.
He clarified all the doubts that arose about this vibrant story in which the past and the present intertwine to shape an exciting story, while announcing his future projects.
During his visit, he encouraged the attending students to see in the challenges an opportunity for personal improvement, encouraging students to embark on the adventure of writing. “Writing is inventing the world as each one wants. Writing gives freedom.
Irene, with her natural sweetness, talked with the attendees of the four Secondary courses about the importance of spelling and compared reading and writing with sport, which improves as more is practiced.
In a very enriching meeting with great pedagogical value, the new writer promoted a positive attitude towards books while spreading her passion for reading and writing.
