Author bio:

I move every 2.5 years, I lived in Italy, Algery and The Netherlands. I grew up playing RpG and writing about that.
I published:
a short story in a collection of local legends (Storie e Leggende tra i due laghi - 2003),
an handbook about cave trolls (Gnomi di caverna - 2005),
a novel about a cave troll who became a guru (Avventure sotterranee per gnomi di caverna - 2009),
a novel about dragons in Milano (I draghi dei Visconti - 2010),
a collection of Italian legends (I luoghi della meraviglia - 2010),
an handbook about dragons (Come diventare cacciatore di draghi - 2012),
and the second novel about dragons in Milano (Draghi randagi in fuga tra e Alpi - 2013).

The novel I'm writing now will be published next year (hopefully).

I work as environmental blogger/journalist, but I get my income selling magic wands on the street. I love storytelling, that's the basic happiness of my working day.
