Francisco Javier E MoralesFrancisco Javier Morales Ercambrack was born in Mexico City in 1955, has a B.A. in Economics from Universidad Iberoamericana of Mexico City, and an M. A. in Economics from the University of Kent at Canterbury, U.K. His interest in literature comes frm when he studied high school at the Modern American School in Mexico City. In this school special emphasis was made on literature, both English and Spanish. There he became acquainted with English novels of the nineteen century and the first half of twentieth-century, as well as classical Spanish authors. Literature for Javier is much more than an important hobby because for him literature is a way to understand and learn about the world. In 1977 he won a silver money-box at the XII contest of short stories organized by the Spanish Association of Savings and Loans Institutions with his short story called The Towers (Las Torres). At present, Javier has self-published four books: one short story book (Artists in San Miguel and Other Stories) and three novels (Personal Achievements, Wet Grass, and On & Off). Read More Read Less
