Last update: July 2026; written at my desk on damn hot afternoon.

A General Update

I am still working at Helvia and living peacefully in my little hometown with my beautiful companion. I am happy with that. I don’t want to live in big cities and, as I grow older, I feel I am attracted more and more to nature and the countryside. Not that I am in the countryside, but to give you an idea. I am in the perfect compromise between my “I wanna go living in the middle of a forest” and my partner “I don’t want to live too far away.” My hometown is also growing more interesting in the last years, with more events and cultural activities and sport events and new shops.

We have a cat now. We found him at the end of December on our doorsteps. We called him Pepito.

Ah, me and Gioia got engaged in May 2026 and we will marry on May 15th 2027. :)

Things I did recently

• I am learning Elixir. It is a cool language. If incremental typing lands soon, it will be close to my perfect language.

Things I am Working On

As someone with more ideas than time or energy to pursue them, this list will be a mess. But anyway, here’s what I’m working on:

• I am sitting on 3 first-draft novels I will have to revise at some point.
  • I have rewritten my second novel, Boss Fight. Now it is time to do a proper revision.
• I would like to resume writing on my Italian blog L’Ornitorinco Elegante.
• Everything else (blog posts and personal projects) are in a confusing mess, but I am kinda working things out.
• Not a lot of updates, I have to say. A bit disappointing.

Things I am Reading

I am reading a lot of various books. There is no theme, so far. I am reading Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman and it is amazing. One of those books that makes me envy the writer’s ability.

The complete list of books I am reading is on my StoryGraph profile.

Things I am Watching

In 2024, I watched almost 200 movies. I rediscovered my movie passion and that I actually have a lot of time for them if I remove all the useless crap I did in their place.

I now watching all Alfred Hitchcock movies.

The full real-time list of what I watch is currently on my Letterboxd profile.

Or, once again, check the monthly recap on my latest ChangeLog.

• I finally watched all the 007 movies. They sucks.

Things I am Playing

Nothing, really.

But I am still running a D&D campaign! That’s great. And I am discovering a lot of solo-RPGs to play.
