Mexico City, Mexico
Narrativa con Alberto Chimal
Soy Allison Hazel Lievano GĂłmez y vivo en Ciudad de MĂ©xico. He estado contando historias desde los dos años cuando les “leĂa” a mis papás los libros infantiles que me regalaban. A los ocho años escribĂ un cuento inspirado en mi hermana Daniela quien tiene SĂndrome de Down y Autismo. Con este ganĂ© un concurso de una ONG que publicĂł mi historia como libro ilustrado. Gracias a esto, tambiĂ©n tuve la oportunidad de formar parte del Consejo Consultivo de UNICEF MĂ©xico. Desde ahĂ descubrĂ el asombroso poder de las palabras y me imaginĂ© como escritora y luchadora por los derechos de los niños y las minorĂas. Pero me di cuenta que para lograr esto, tenĂa que dedicarme a aprender y a pulir mi escritura. Desde entonces tomĂ© clases con excelentes maestros como Juan GĂłmez Bárcena y MartĂn Felipe Castagnet. Actualmente tengo quince años y sigo persiguiendo el mismo sueño. Ahora estoy trabajando en mi segundo proyecto de novela.
¡Me siento muy agradecida y privilegiada de formar parte de la comunidad de Volcanistas!
I’m Allison Hazel Lievano GĂłmez and I live in Mexico City. I have been telling stories since I was two years old when I “read” to my parents the children’s books they gave me. At the age of eight I wrote a story inspired by my sister Daniela who has Down Syndrome and a utism. With this I won a contest for an NGO that published my story as an illustrated book. Thanks to this, I also had the opportunity to be part of the UNICEF Mexico Advisory Council. From there I discovered the amazing power of words and imagined myself as a writer and fighter for the rights of children and minorities. But I realized that to achieve this, I had to dedicate myself to learning and polishing my writing. Since then I have taken classes with excellent teachers such as Juan GĂłmez Bárcena and MartĂn Felipe Castagnet. I am currently fifteen years old and I continue to pursue the same dream. Now I am working on my second novel project.
