Sobre las Quince Letras
ABOUT THE FIFTEEN LETTERS
«A new expanded digital literature».
In 2024, professor of philology José Manuel Lucía Megías and author and editor Benjamín Escalonilla founded this digital literature publishing house for web books for mobile phones and other screens, which take advantage of digital resources such as randomness (stochastic literature), kinesic text, interactivity, sound, illustration, photography, video, etc.
Our works can be read without apps, additional software or fees. We do not publish eBooks, but rather digital works that offer a new reading experience.
Among the authors who have already published with us are: Jose Luis Sampedro (National Prize for Spanish Literature), India Toctli (winner of the Ciudad de Burgos poetry prize under her former name, Isabel G. Mellado), Ana Rossetti (Rey Juan Carlos I International Poetry Prize), Javier Puebla (finalist for the Nadal Prize), Benjamín Escalonilla (first Spanish winner of the Robert Coover Award from the Electronic Literature Organisation, in 2025), José Ángel Mañas (finalist for the Nadal Prize), José Manuel Lucía Megías (Juan Alcaide International Poetry Prize), Gonzalo Escarpa (National Living Culture Prize), Dani Herrera with a digital translation of Federico García Lorca, Mario Crespo (best Spanish novel at the Festival du Premier Roman de Chambéry), Latin Americans Mathias Curbelo, Arcadio Valentín, Dulce Pinzón, among others...
A new reading experience
«Readers can read the first 10% of the work for free and pay to continue reading».
Works designed for screens where reading is enriched by reader participation and different digital media that enrich the text.
Readers can enjoy the purchased work for life without any fees, without the need for any apps or downloads. Our books are read in the same way as an online newspaper.

What do we offer authors?
We publish books where the writer is the main focus, but which are enriched by co-authorship for these multidisciplinary works.
As a publishing house, we offer advice and digital support to authors who wish to publish with us. We provide authors with access to a community of artists: digital layout designers who will suggest ideas for making the most of these digital resources, programmers, musicians, illustrators, filmmakers, photographers, etc.
We accept manuscripts at the following address:
https://lasquinceletraseditorial.es/manuscritos
‘37% of the sale price is distributed in royalties, of which 25% goes to the writer.’
