About me

E.F. Paredes

Guatemalan writer based in Las Vegas — crafting worlds where light and shadow converse.

I am Eddy Fidel Paredes, a Guatemalan author living in Las Vegas. Since childhood, I have felt a profound fascination for stories — for the way words can give form to what the soul cannot always speak aloud. My journey as a writer began by transforming memories, faith, and silence into symbols and light, seeking to connect what is human with what is eternal.

I do not consider myself a perfect writer; I am still learning, walking among great authors and humble dreamers who have dedicated their lives to breathing life into their creations. To all of them, I owe my respect and admiration.

Through my works — such as LUMEN and Serhaïl Concept — I explore the fragile balance between light and darkness, faith and doubt, hope and despair. I wish for every story not just to be read, but to be felt — to awaken the reader’s inner reflection and remind them that truth always prevails, and that light, even when faint, still illuminates all.

Thank you for taking a moment to read these words. May you find, between my verses, a home; between my lines, hope; and beyond the darkness, the certainty that it never lasts forever.

“Truth is a virtue of time.”
