Welcome, and some preliminary explanations

Welcome to the personal web page of writer (and professional sociologist) Fabio Romanelli!

Dearest reader: here you’ll find the many texts of this young writer, without actually having to walk up to him and ask for some short story or narration out of his blue folder. In other words, you’ll be spared the (possible) disgust of having to meet the guy personally, not to mention saving that whole lot of paper.

The mini stories to be published here will be, with any luck, of the kind that make the readers fly to other worlds, some wholly strange, others very similar to ours (assuming that the reader is an Earthling, of course). The kind that makes you meet irreverent characters, adventurous ones, relaxed, severe, fun ones, some reasonably angry, others absolutely furious, and others helplessly confused. There seems to be quite a lot of this last kind: it’s not their fault, of course, they are but the victims of the author’s cruel plots.

Ultimately, the objective is to make readers fly, soar, travel through countless odd circumstances --some seriously interesting, others not so much-- without the need of passport or valid visa: the only thing that’s needed is an active imagination and a decent level of literacy… so, kindly put your documents away if you tend to take things too literally.

Explore, read, enjoy (or don’t. It’s not mandatory, mind you), and comment!

I sincerely offer apologies for any frustration led this blog may cause.

Welcome!

Fabio Romanelli
