edit data

Leggo e scrivo da quando ho imparato a farlo. Amo disegnare e considero il disegno una forma diversa di scrittura (e viceversa). Ho studiato per diventare copywriter e ho lavorato per molto nell’ambito pubblicitario e promozionale. Quando il settore è entrato in crisi, la mia vita ha preso altre strade, ma non ho mai abbandonato la scrittura. In questa mi sono rifugiata per non inaridirmi nel tempo in cui ho vissuto come cemento tra i mattoni. “Il viaggio” è stata la mia sfida, il risultato del mio non arrendermi e non abbandonare completamente le mie speranze.

Bianca come la morte

Salve a tutti e a tutti ben trovati!

Il 1° di maggio sono uscita su Spazinclusi con un nuovo racconto, Bianca come la morte, dove tratto il tema delle morti bianche.
Non amo particolarmente confrontarmi con il testo contemporaneo/civile, temo sempre di non essere efficace, di risultare noiosa, tuttavia, visto il giorno in cui era calendarizzata l'uscita, ho deciso di sfruttare l'occasione per cerca Read more of this blog post »
