***

I’m an author of travel books who debuted in fiction in 2021, the year I won the European prize in the EACWP Flash Fiction competition with «The Caretaker,» a 100-word horror story.

Since then, in addition to the travel books in which I continue to collaborate, I have been a part of the Portuguese anthologies «Sangue Novo» (2021), with the short story «Praga», «Sangue» (2022), with the short story «Equilíbrio», and «Dead Letters: Episodes of Epistolary Horror» (2023), with the short story «Next of Kin.» In March 2022, I co-founded Fábrica do Terror, where I act as editor-in-chief. Occasionally, I collaborate with local magazines and non-fiction books with articles on Portuguese horror.
