@[email protected]📖 Me gusta juzgar los libros por su portada y darme cuenta de lo equivocado que estaba al leerlos.
📚 Mis géneros favoritos son la Fantasía y el Terror, pero leo un poquito de todo.
✒️ De vez en cuando romantizo mi vida escribiendo.
Uso Linux y siempre que puedo busco alternativas Open Source, porque a este paso nos van a cobrar una subscripción hasta por encender el móvil.
