Young in professional writing (since 2023) and also in life (since 2000), I have two books of short stories published independently in physical format, in addition to a vast amount of short stories and two novels published digitally through the Amazon KDP program. A fan of Machado de Assis, Clarice Lispector and Carla Madeira, to name just three names.
