Pilar Cabañas was born in Madrid in 1964. She has always liked good stories; so much so that she studied Art History and now teaches contemporary and Japanese art at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. She has always been fascinated by past eras, distant places and the natural world. When her sixth child was born, she began to allow her imagination free rein and to write reality-filled short stories filled that she publishes twice a month in the magazine Ciudad Nueva. In this task, she hopes to present children with the mysteries hidden behind every one of our actions.
