Marcos Pereda was born in Torrelavega in 1981. First he was a little boy, then he grew up, and now he has become a little boy again. He has worked as a ghost writer, but prefers not to talk about that because he was young and innocent. He writes for sites including Jot Down, CTXT, Conquista Magazine and Soigneur, publications of such great renown that they have even managed to withstand his presence. He has also written a few strange books and others about bicycles, like 'Arriva Italia' or 'Periquismo: Crónica de una pasión' (Periquismo: Chronicle of a Passion). He has won the odd prize, but has a terrible memory for these things. One year he was about to win his club's Carrera del Pavo ('turkey race', an annual cycling race), but a fatal puncture did for his dreams of glory. He has never managed to get over it.
