Recently I wrote about a little crisis... When I started writing posts, when a new blogger was born, I felt curious but above all blogging was amusing.
My first posts were published in a blog called Retos de Internet, which finally was closed, I don't really know why... anyway, it wasn't my domain so there was little I could do.
I began writing in Bitacoras a year and a half ago, I mostly write about gender and social or media stereotypes. My PhD was about the feminine press and how women are misrepresented. That was a long time ago (two years!) but I am still interested in these topics, so posts are often related to gender issues.
As I told before, I have been losing interest in posting... I don't really know the reason, although I believe it is because I don't have many readers. Nevertheless, due to a research about Free Culture (that includes blogs) I decided to include "Negras tormentas" in a list of blogs that participate in an annual contest organised by a newspaper called "20 Minutos". I thought nobody would vote for my blog (you have to register...) and at least seven people have!!!
That was what I needed... as time goes by you realise that it is not important HOW MANY people read you but WHO does it.
By the way, from this moment on I will write in English.

Sea en el idioma que sea, lo importante es no dejar de escribir. And the topic... always changes but the hand is still the same... so... go on.

I write about everything that needs (h)activism, particularly gender issues and media. I am very concerned about stereotypes and how media use them, that is to say, misrepresentation.
