Some time ago Alex Nogués (Barcelona, 1976) threw his bowler hat into the air to see where it would take him and set off to be palaeontologist, then a hydrogeologist, and then to try his hand at gardening and nutrition. On the way he fell in love and from that love two children were born. He steals time wherever he can to write stories (something he claims to have been doing since he saw The NeverEnding Story). His greatest challenge is to be a knight-errant for his princess and the best possible father for his children. He writes on a computer now, although he used to use a type-writer. Rarely does he write by hand, acknowledging that his handwriting is indecipherable, even to himself.
