Hello everyone! There have been some changes here. First of all, I'm now accredited as a Goodreads author since my first book, a historical fiction work in Italian (Storie di Sardegna - Epoca Giudicale), is coming out on December 1st, self-published through Amazon KDP.

To celebrate, I added a brand new short story to my Halloween collection, here on Goodreads. It's written in English but centres the Sardinian festivity of is Animeddas, the Day of the Souls, celebrated between end of October and November 2nd. Have a good read and a happy Halloween!👻

My English debut book, Song Among the Ruins, is planned to be released on July 25th! It is a historical gothic book set in Sardinia, where Sardinian culture and history are fundamental. It is a dual timeline, marketed as YA but appropriate for anyone! Here is the official blurb:

Cagliari, 1668. Francisca, Countess of Cuglieri and Marchioness of Siete Fuentes, lives a comfortable life as the wife of one of the most influential political figures of Cagliari’s high society, the Marquess of Laconi. After openly speaking against the Viceroy of the King and his officials, the Marquess is murdered under unclear circumstances, but the revenge of his relatives turns against the Spanish caste. The Viceroy is murdered and the game of trials begins. Francisca and her lover, Silvestro Aymerich, become the suspects of the homicides.

Cuglieri, 1830. Rosalia wants to see the ruins of the castle of Montiferru and Elias would indulge her in anything in his attempt to reveal his secret love for her, included visiting the castle allegedly haunted by the Marchioness’ ghost. Soon they realise the legend might not be completely unfounded and strange phenomena unfold around them: ghostly appearances, nightmares and, especially, attempts at their own lives.

Hello everyone! Today I want to share a couple of guest posts/interviews I did with regards to my published or almost-published books. I recently did a guest post on my friend (and beta reader) Ananya's blog, about Song Among the Ruins (therefore in English), while some months ago I was interviewed by a local blog of my town about Storie di Sardegna - Epoca Giudicale (in Italian). Here are the links below!

Have a good reading!

I finally decided to start publishing my books even in Kindle format, starting with my historical gothic. Song Among the Ruins is already up for pre-order on Amazon, official release happening on October 19th, in time for Halloween that appears in the book in its Sardinian forms, which is 'is Animeddas' ('is' is an article here 🤣). Later on, Storie di Sardegna - Epoca Giudicale will follow.

You can pre-order from the link below, choosing the 'Kindle' option.
