Just yesterday I learned through Blogspot that
more than 95 pct of my viewers are probably English-speaking persons! So, why
waste my time writing in my native language if my fellow country man and woman (less
than 0,52 pct) do not bother to visit my blog? I know of only one good friend
that usually comes to see what is cooking in my freaking mind — thank you, Tiane.
So, from now on the Bard’s words is what will be found here!!!
This blog started in 2007, mainly because I
love writing, but also because I was launching my first romance in Portuguese —
later it was translated to English: “Walk Trot Gallop”. I was frequently asked
why didn’t I write a long story because my main work was short fiction and cronics. After
reading the same novel for the umpteenth time because I loved it so much, I said
to myself: maybe I can try and do something like this. I chose to write something
related to horses, which I breed and therefore know a little bit about and 9
months before I started it came about. I was very proud of myself because it
was a challenge and I took it up front. Now, the line-up is Passo
Trote Galope, Quer Apostar?, Sob o Signo de Centauro, Carrossel, Vale das Luas,
Perdi a Cabeça and Só Cinco Noites. There is also a short story published with
another one from my sister — Dois em Um — unfortunately, with the
exception of the first one, all in Portuguese, but maybe this will change in
the future.
So, the main subjects in this blog are my
books, horses of the Arab breed, Rio de Janeiro — my beloved city, films and
books, some very personal observations about life and spoilers of the latest
vice: k-dramas. Welcome to my humble abode and hope you enjoy the reading.
