Hard to say without spoiling the book, but i'll do my best.
In the past, mostly due to my academic studies and profession, I have read several books on the physiology of the brain, on the connections between mind and time,etc.
The more you read about the brain and how it workis the more you are tempted to consider it as a mere machine responding to stimuli. And when that happens, the inevitable is just around the corner.
You start wondering about free will, about our whether we are actually capable of influencing our future. If we can decide.
You find yourself struggling between your desire to feel in control and the promise that lurks behind the realization that all has already been written.
Sofia's journey is my attempt to investigate these topics from the perspective of a novel. Will you dare walking with her, even just for while?

Some ideas grow inside you for a very long time. If you pay them the right attention, you feed them with what happens in your daily life. Until the day comes in which you know it is time to write them down

Not forcing myself into writing. Going for a run in the country side and getting ideas from what I see around me

Once I'll get there I'll let you know. For now, I have just had a lot of fun being able to put down in words ideas that I really wanted to share with other people

Have fun! I am "aspiring" just as much as you are :-)

Right now, I am translating my first novel into English. It is quite an interesting challenge and I am having the support of a native speaker.
While doing this, I am publishing the chapters online so you can all give me your feedback! Here you can find the first 5 http://goo.gl/aJxqTk
I am also working on a new idea for my second book. It'll be in Italian first ... but you'll get more news about it soon
