È stato meraviglioso poter portare una lezione interamente dedicata a "La scrittura geniale" —anzi, a "The writing genius"— a Università Bocconi.
Grazie a tuttə quelle meravigliose decine di ragazzə sui banchi. Ricominciamo a "pensare scrivendo".
Grazie Milano!

I give you Bologna, in all its glory and medieval grit. People often ask why I choose to weave my tales here. I used to say that as a writer I spin yarns from the threads I knows best. But, let's cut to the chase - she is a beauty. She's a bit battered, she's old AF, but she's got a lot to say.

We are doing a kickstarter for the Good Omens graphic novel. Adapted from the book by Terry Pratchett and me by @colleendoran.bsky.social. So many yummy things you can get. (And book and comic shops can order too.) and it’s LIVE! Hurrah

I was wondering about the future of microblogging. Things are going in the direction of decentralized socials, even so 'X' will continue to be a thing with its vast user base. More and more people will try this conversation through various spaces. But why Bluesky (or Nostr) and not Mastodon?

Hello, Mastod... Nope!
Hello, Nost... Nope!
Hello, Threaaa... Nope again!

Goodbye Bluesky?
You say goodbye and I say hello, hello hellooooo...
