Cornelia Grey is a creative writing student fresh out of university, with a penchant for fine arts and the blues. Born and raised in the hills of Northern Italy, where she collected her share of poetry and narrative prizes, she is now based in London, and she is thoroughly enjoying the cultural melting pot that is the City.

Her interests vary from painting to photography, from sewing to acting; when writing, she favors curious, surreal poems and short stories involving handsome young men seducing each other.

After graduating with top grades, she is now busy with internships - literary agencies, publishing houses, and creative departments handling book series, among others. She also works as a freelance translator.

“Non sei uno stolto. Conosci le leggende,” disse la volpe, con la voce scura di rabbia. “Sai che il gioiello che hai visto contiene l’anima di una volpe. Un uomo ha rubato il mio. Fine della storia.”
Cornelia Grey, The Ronin and The Fox

“Vi ha mandato il locandiere?” Chiese, quasi sorpreso dalla fermezza della sua voce.
Lo sconosciuto sorrise nuovamente in modo misterioso, inclinando la testa da un lato. “Non proprio. Ma spero che la mia visita sia comunque di vostro gradimento. O samurai-dono trova la mia presenza importuna?” Si sporse in avanti e la stoffa della sua manica sfiorò le dita di Hajime, poggiate sul tavolo.
“Certo che no,” replicò all’istante Hajime. Il profumo del ragazzo lo avvolgeva, dolce e inebriante, facendogli ribollire il sangue. Delle immagini gli fluttuavano nella testa, riscaldandogli il corpo come una lenta tortura: il ragazzo, con lo yukata in disordine; le sue lunghe gambe esposte al tocco di Hajime; la sua pallida gola tesa mentre gettava la testa all’indietro, ansimando e gemendo sotto le mani di Hajime...
Hajime non si rese conto di essere balzato in piedi finché non ebbe fatto tre passi indietro, incespicando sul tatami, con il cuore che batteva all’impazzata.”
Cornelia Grey, The Ronin and The Fox

“Katsura.” La voce dello spirito era così bassa che quasi non la sentì.
“Come, scusa?” Chiese Hajime, colto alla sprovvista. La sua mano indugiò più a lungo del necessario.
La volpe aggrottò le sopracciglia. “È il mio nome,” disse, imbronciato. “Katsura.”
Cornelia Grey, The Ronin and The Fox

Thank you very much, Val :)! I'm marking some of your titles as 'to read' right now - Ink Illusions in particular sounds incredibly intriguing!
