Pura Vida in Costa Rica

Travel is a great way to expand one's horizons. My last trip reminded me of this. I just returned from Costa Rica where exotic sights, sounds, and flavors filled my senses everywhere I turned. This country, in particular, offers the kind of experience that feeds the imagination and get one's creative juices flowing. It was great to get away from the cold and rain for a while. What a great experience! Here are some images from CR. I'll post more once I figure out how to re-size them.

Now, back to my writing.

About Me

Estela Bernal

Books have been a passion of mine since I learned to read. Perhaps it was the fact that I grew up without them and have been trying to make up for that childhood deficiency ever since. Perhaps it is the way books enrich my life as they open up new worlds for me to explore.

Living in Portland has allowed me to indulge my passion for reading and writing as it has the best library system and bookstores in the country and its residents take their books as seriously as they do their coffee, food, and beer.

I'm a member of Willamette Writers, the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI), and SCBWI-OR. I attend at least one conference and/or writers’ workshop or retreat each year. I also belong to two critique groups made up of wonderfully creative, innovative, and resourceful writers who are very generous with their time and feedback. Thanks, Guys!
