Dear reader,

thank you for visiting. this is an interim space to house some pieces I’ve written during the past five years, and hopefully some that I will write in the future – think a casual portfolio or a well-polished diary, accompanied by a photo album of film pictures I have taken over the past few years. I write poetry, prose, songs (you’ll find the lyrics here, and the sounds somewhere else), and some of those are translated in Italian too. infatti, I am Italian, but most of what I write is in English first, then I translate into my mother tongue – isn’t the brain a funny thing? Read more for an insight into mine.

with care,

Viola
