Her Career

She is co-founder and member of the Society of Writers of Paraguay. She also had involvement in the founding of the group of Paraguayan Associated Writers and the Pen Club of Paraguay.

She is part of a generation of Paraguayan women who, early in the decade of the 1960s, made their literary production, occupying a very important area in the Paraguayan literature.

Her first steps in producing poetry, were directed towards children. Her first book of poems for children was called "Ojitos negros", published in April 1965.

In addition to her many books published, several of her poems have been included in anthologies and literary publications, both in her country and other foreign nations.

Famous quotes containing the word career:

    What exacerbates the strain in the working class is the absence of money to pay for services they need, economic insecurity, poor daycare, and lack of dignity and boredom in each partner’s job. What exacerbates it in upper-middle class is the instability of paid help and the enormous demands of the career system in which both partners become willing believers. But the tug between traditional and egalitarian models of marriage runs from top to bottom of the class ladder.
    Arlie Hochschild (20th century)

    I seemed intent on making it as difficult for myself as possible to pursue my “male” career goal. I not only procrastinated endlessly, submitting my medical school application at the very last minute, but continued to crave a conventional female role even as I moved ahead with my “male” pursuits.
    Margaret S. Mahler (1897–1985)
