So yeah, this happened.
I went to Rome a weekend ago, to pick up the "Giovanni Pace" Special Jury award, courtesy of Dark Zone.
Along with the prize comes a book deal. Yup, you heard it right. After almost a decade of anthologies and national award, I am finally going pro with a reputable publishing house, signing a contract that (theoretically, we know how indie publishing is) contemplates paying me. Unreal, I know.
My debut novel, Berenice, is scheduled to release in late 2024. Stay tuned for more info.
