Mónica Gómez Vesga

I read fiction and non-fiction books in Spanish, and transform their key ideas into summaries designed for audio format (known as Blinks), for the Blinkist app. These texts become scripts narrated by professional voice actors, and are available, both in text and audio, for over 30 million subscribers worldwide.

The Blinks are designed for curious people with little time, who prefer to listen to a 20-minute summary instead of reading a whole book. The idea is to capture the essential clearly, entertainingly, and usefully.

My work combines analysis, synthesis, and creative writing. It requires a lot of reading, quick understanding, and writing with audio format in mind. I also work with tight deadlines and internationally distributed editorial teams.

I have written Blinks on self-help (Querida yo, tenemos que hablar, by Elizabeth Clapés; ¿Amar o depender?, by Walter Riso; La millonésima mujer, by Mercé Brey), essays (La rebelión de las masas, by Ortega y Gasset), literary fiction (La fiesta del chivo, by Mario Vargas Llosa; Pedro Páramo, by Juan Rulfo), and short stories (El Aleph, by Jorge Luis Borges).
