Publisher's Summary

The Unpublished Short-Stories More Extraordinary: The title is extremely ambitious, and we aspire to attain the level of its exigence. Brevity has become the most active ingredient in modern society. The messages that can be enclosed in a few words will extol dimensions of global expansion if they condense the necessary ingredients to impact the listener. The objective is to create an imprint from words that can become the leitmotiv of an individual's life; words that provoke such imprints and that you will pronounce until the dying minute of your life. After much analysis of the world literature and its attempts to achieve an imprint with the least number of words, we were able to create the basis for evaluation and selection, starting from: The poet's art of synthesis. The genius of the definition of the philosopher. The concretion capability of the scientist. And it is than that the greatest attribute of the short story creator arises: the Relatist writing ability to condense language. In such a way that a new description of the literary creation emerges: the Relatist. In this way, we inaugurated a new genre and named it: Cuentinimio, TinyStory.

It is necessary to differentiate the Relatist of the storyteller and a novelist. Who has written in all genres and, moreover, has built images from verses, he understands that each genre demands its own scaffolding. We do not intend to teach, but to show the scaffolding for the construction of a story. It has been called little story or mini fiction. Even: small tale; brief tale, but, in fact, the story of immediacy demands the greatest writing ability to resemble the speed with which we relate us the world day by day: It is to pave the sheet with the asphalt of the writing ingenuity for the construction of the short-story, the tale or the novel.

Being a matter that gives for a much larger essay that we will later share, the objective is to achieve the most accurate selection of the unpublished TinyStories, the most extraordinary. The reader should understand the extensive work of searching for them as if we were miners extracting precious diamonds and in all the range of the literary world. The short-story must start from two pages to no more than five. The tale is acceptable with five pages and no more than 15. Who has climbed a narrative to more than 15 pages, he can extend much more since he does not respect the principles of the short story where it must express what is necessary by writing and symbolic transmission of a topic; a theme that necessarily is telling a story. In such a way that the short story should not exceed two pages. In fact, it should be at most a page and a half so there is enough space to allow the eyes to breathe. This synesthetic element is fundamental. Not only content and form matter, but the spatialization is also vitally necessary. Because the visual impact is significant, the narrative begins it's banquet when the reader has not yet tasted a single word, precisely, because he has visualized it with all it's delicacies, which he cannot appreciate pro tempora. And it is not necessary since the whole allows the imagination to begin to salivate the appetite of listening or reading. In addition, the type of letter is important, even, the jumps of lines and paragraphs. Welcome, than, listener, to the inauguration of this new genre of literature: TinyStory (Cuentinimios in Spanish). And who writes: the Relatist.

The full list of narrators includes Charly Ferrer, Gerardo Brauer, Scott Lopez London, Arlette Cohen, and Javier Buendía.
