forgot to announce it on here, but i'm writing a new novel!!!! it's supposed to be an horror story with fantasy and weird elements, but let's see how it goes 👀

it really shifted my whole mindset!!

i'm reading an amazing book on the important of rest ("rest is resistance" by tricia hersey) and one of my favorite quotes go:

"how can we access pleasure, joy, and liberation if we are too tired to experience it?" and "urgency is a myth that preys upon your fears about the future"

would you like a quick thriller story, horror-nuanced, for your halloween night? my short novel ”the country house” is FREE on amazon for the next few days as part of this “Get Spooked” SYK event! Find out more here:

today: drafted out the new project, revised the "fernik" english translation, built my freelance profile on contra, prepped for my d&d session tomorrow — amazing what boredom can do to a person

Keep writing. Poetry. Shorts. Entire novels. Post it here, on your site or publish it in books.
You never know when your words will resonate with another human in just the way that human needed. We could all do with that just now.

(Same goes for all creatives; keep creating.)

fellow authors, do you recommend publishing your novels on itch? i never tried it and id love for some opinions!!!!

side note: i was also in the closet while writing my first draft and i thought it was absolutely normal for girls to have silly, little crushes on their girl best friends............

fun fact: during the first draft i did not notice i was writing a romance subplot until my beta readers were like...... they're lesbians, right? and they're flirting? and after re-reading what i wrote, i had to agree with them!!

every antagonist in fernik while facing a squad made of a bunch of clueless gay people

Me: Why do I keep writing books about people who don't think they're worthy?

Also me: Am I worthy to be writing these books?

anyway, next weekend i'll be going to my first book fair in years and i'm so excited!!! what's your best advice for in-place book selling? what catches the passerby's eyes?

you're so right ❤️ it's what playing a game which is supposed to be a team game means: everybody should win!!!

Today its the 25th of April, and in Italy we celebrate the 80th liberation day!
Sadly the government exploited the death of the pope (5 days of national grieving, the longest ever procaimed) to cover this celebration and suggested more "sober" celebrations, without "chanting and dancing".

having one of my first game as a dm ruined bc all the players wanted the broody, suspicious and misanthropic character radicalized me 😭😭😭

thisssss!!!!! and ttrpg are meant to be fun, if “what my character would do” is something that ruins the game for everyone, then it's your fault for writing a character that obviously isn't fit for a PARTY game
