Barbara Soalheiro has entered the building

We are very, very glad to announce the arrival of a brand new team. Barbara Soalheiro, from Belo Horizonte, Brazil, is part of the quartet that will represent the almost unbelievable resurrection of the Creative Writing Department. Welcome back Barbara, finally...

How did you come to learn about Fabrica?
A friend joined Fabrica's video department, in 2003. I came to the website and there was a pop-up saying "We are looking for writers". I thought it was a sign, so I started the long process of translating my work and preparing a portfolio. Finally, in July 2006, I came for my trial. But, back then, they were thinking of closing the writing department. So only now, 20 months after I took my first 1/ bus, I'm back.

What have you been doing before?
I've always worked at magazines. Right before I came, I was editor-in-chief of Capricho, the teenager magazine I used to read when I was 14.

What do you expect to get out of this experience?
I decided to keep my expectations very low - and let things surprise me. All I really want is to write and write and write. That's what brought me here.

What will you miss from home?
Friday nights at the Gwercman's, my living room window, long nights drinking with friends. But I'm sure I'll also find new windows, new friends and, of course, new long nights of drinking.

Anything else you'd like to share with us?
Hum, not really. Only that it's really good to be here - finally.
