Next gatherings: Greece (longer format) and back to Ticino next spring. For now, taking a moment to appreciate what these writers created together. ✨

What 25 hours of focused creative time reveals: everyone has stories worth telling, most people need permission to tell them, and the right environment makes all the difference. And trust.

This year's theme: memory and imagination: How the stories we remember and the ones we invent are more closely related than we think. Maybe the best writing lives in that overlap.

Just finished teaching five days of creative writing at Villa Ciani. Still processing how a group of strangers becomes a creative community so quickly. Something about shared vulnerability on the page.

[EN] There's a particular quality of silence that falls when someone reads a truth they've just discovered in their own writing.

Coma dopo la Collisione: Fuga dal Fragore di Londra Dal coma post-collisione alla quiete rigenerante dell'Est dell'Inghilterra. Pensieri sparsi tra schermi, natura, il fragore di Londra e il balsamo del silenzio.

[IT] Non è lo scrivere. È lo schermo. Il computer. Questa condizione binaria in cui la macchina pone occhi, cervello e spirito. Scrivere è ciò che vorrei fare, ma per questo avvizzire davanti a uno schermo come un pomodoro bianco in una serra olandese?
