Hello, Readers! In the first place, I am an avid reader, too - and a picky one (who gets bored pretty easily, by the way). Therefore, to satisfy cravings for novelty and surprise, the pilot trilogy was designed to fill the imagination gap in fiction literature. Rather than re-iterating common themes (such as superpowers, time travel, murders, synchrotron explosions, etc∙), the three books present completely unheard-of mysteries. Stay tuned! This is just a prelude to a much bigger puzzle...
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?

As the title "The Mystery of the Rammed Key" suggests, the story was inspired, well... by the discovery of an antique key ingrown in the wood of a robust old tree! The blackened handle was protruding from the bark, and that's where all the wonders, quests for possible explanations, and wild fantasies started. Now you can dive in the intricate fictive drama loaded with action, sparks of humor, and unexpected twists of events.
What authors or books have influenced you?

What are you working on now?

The three previous cases (the forgotten chest, the rammed key, the Cursed Forest) are somehow interconnected. The roots of such relation can be tracked back to remote history and foggy ancient times. Now it's the moment to gratify the readers' curiosity with additional discoveries emerging in the broader plot.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?

To get published in English.
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
awesomegang.com (2022-MAR-20)
Unbelievably, it would be four (4) copies of the same book: Dr∙ Barton's special secret encyclopedia.
Wonder why? You will understand later, after reading the next parts of the book series - featuring a mystery hunter disguised as a local speech therapist, together with his dedicated helpers (of all ages), fighting together the bestial enemies of the truth and progress (of many sorts, powers and methods of operation).
