Translating my book, journey

Yes, the moment has come.

I will start translating my book.

Wish me luck.

I have been writing in italian for my whole life and my first novel ,The last Beat came out in italian but now, since I think that it's a great story I really wish I can reach more people, and just by translating it I'll be able to do it.

I am really ecxited to start this journey even if I know it's going to be so long and difficult.

I have translated before but oh my God, that was hard.

I will try and update here everything that I do.

This is how the italian cover is, I might keep the same one for the translated version, I'll definitely change the trim size because I know that American and English people do care about the size of the book while Italians don't.

I can't wait to know what more people think about my story and I can't wait to start this journey, this is the first novel I've ever written and I was 17 when I started and finished this, I am so proud of it and I am really happy to try and translate it to make it reach even more people.

I hope you'll be interested in following me trough this journey, it's going to be me growing and becoming a better author and translator.

Books and series I've never finished - part two

I've already written an article like this in italian, I'll link it here , open the right bar and translate the article with the tool or just look at the covers of the books if you're interested, and I really liked to write it. There are so many books that I didn't finish because they were terrible or because I just was not getting interested by the story. Reading should be a pleasure, don't force yourself into reading something that you don't like, that's why I'd rather just let the book uncomplete instead of forcing myself into a lot of frustration and finish it. The first book that I've never gotten to finish is Obsidian, I hated this book so much. I have to say that I read the translation and not the original book in English, this can make you hate a book so much, there is a problem, this book was Twilight in every shape and form, it was way too similar to it, I just couldn't. I read enough to review it and I think I gave it one...

Nuova copertina per The last Beat, cover reveal di The last Dance e offerta libro gratis.

Ciao a tutti ragazzi, è un po' di tempo che non scrivo in italiano su questo blog ma rimedierò nel nuovo anno! Oggi volevo presentarvi, finalmente, dopo quasi un anno, la copertina completa della versione cartacea di "The last Beat" e parlarvi un po' del secondo libro, The last Dance, che uscirà verso metà dicembre, vi farò vedere anche la copertina completa. Innanzitutto volevo farvi vedere la copertina della versione cartacea di The last Beat, potrebbe essere l'ultima ma se mi seguite da quando ho aperto questo blog saprete che ho cambiato idea tantissime volte. Ci ho messo moltissimo tempo e impegno a disegnare questa copertina e sono abbastanza felice del risultato finale, rappresenta tutto ciò che troverete nel libro, spiaggia e medicina! Quindi eccola qui fatemi sapere cosa ne pensate. Ho scelto i toni del rosa perché nonostante tutto ciò che succede nella vita di Clarissa la sua vita è comunque perfetta, ha tantissime persone accan...

Why you should read the ''Shatter me'' series right now.

I've read many reviews about the Shatter me series. And I have this bad habit of buying things and then reading reviews, when I watched some YouTube videos of people talking about this series I was kind of regretting the choice of buying it without knowing anything about it. The book got here, I got an edition with three books in one, and I started it looking for a reason to hate it But at the end I started it with no particular expectation. I started the first book, I wasn't loving it but I was still interested in the story. For those of you who may not know, the shatter me series follows the story of Juliette, a girl who's touch is deadly, she can kill people just touching them. She has been considered a monster by everybody and no one actually ever loved her, until she knows a guy that looks like he's immune to her touch. There is some kind of love triangle at the beginning, there is some insta love, but trust me, just go on with the series, i...
