    The writer's desk | Back to work. I am editing my The writer's desk |  Back to work. I am editing my photo book, going through notes - some of them are literally written on the back of an envelope... - and trying to give detailed feedback to the contributors who have started sending in their copy. I've received some beautiful poems and microstories ✒️ and I am so so grateful! 🙏

I had a certain idea of  sequence, but now it feels a bit wobbly and messy. It's all part and parcel of a collaborative project, isn't it?

Anyway... stop complaining and go back to work!

And you, dear followers... stay tuned! 😎

They are writing a microstory or a poem about a picture they don't know anything about - the only clue is that the photo book is about my discovery journey of a place through portraits of a person in that specific location.

I've finally been reunited with quite a large batch of images that I took a while ago, and I've decided to make a book out of them! I took these photographs over an extended period of time, when I was still in London.
My intention is to create a narrative with a substantially fictional edge, intertwining images and text.

Thank you @adrianocastelli and I can't wait to read your story!
