Jorge Luis Reyes Peña, winner of the 1st Antonio Borrego National Sonnet Contest

He confesses that he was never inclined to literature. In 2015 he attended the Guillermo Vidal literary workshop, based at the Provincial Committee of the National Union of Writers and Artists of Cuba (UNEAC, by its acronym in Spanish), motivated by the micro-story, and then he was a few years away from the profession until he resumed those walks. Today he masters genres such as haikus, the Cuban stanza, the aphorism, the epigram, the sonnet, and short sonnet.
