Books are some of our best friends and companions for a lifetime. Words of an incorrigible bookworm, no less. But books guide us through a fascinating world of wonder, learning, hope, entertainment, a world available to us all.

There are countless ones who are no longer apprentice writers, but we are all writers’ apprentices forever…

WELCOME! Wherever you are, feel at home here.

The Writers’ Apprentices is an individual blog, just in English, with only two pages. But it’s also an extension of the bigger blog called Aprendizes de Escritores. As I use to say, Writers’ Apprentices and Aprendizes de Escritores are twins, but not identic ones. I created Aprendizes de Escritores in April/2011 and, since then, I’ve been translating it to English to turn it into a bilingual blog. The whole blog has 15 pages, and there are lots of parts there in Portuguese that are already in English too. As I am a translator, I want both blogs to be shared with all people, no matter the language, or the profession. In order to know the whole bilingual blog of 15 pages, if you’d like after you visit here, please click on the link at the pen below. Here, on the Writers’ Apprentices, you’ll find lots of interesting things too, in a pleasant way, such as articles, texts, phrases, comic cards, general comments and tips, etc.

Laughter is the best medicine

     We all like to see funny images on the social networks, among other places. They make us laugh and relax. Sense of humor is essential in life, and I enjoy writing texts with a funny streak, and I let my comic side come through whenever I’ve got the chance. With images of internet public domain, I create cards like these ones below that I call “Comic Cards” as a hobby, just for fun.
