Main Article Content

Abstract

Today, when immediacy and brevity prevail in a digital world that impacts and erodes the profession, the transition from journalism to literature makes a huge difference. The identification of the theme and its narrative potential, the mastery of journalistic genres and the knowledge of the narrative resources to tell them from the chronicle, are determining factors. Everything starts within identifying the fact that later becomes a news, abiding by the golden rule: the news tells of an event, the chronicle makes a story of it. Our journey ¡News, chronicle… fiction!
