there is an italian phrase: ‘gazofilacio’ meaning: treasure chamber of the mind. it is the word given to the ragged little store of poems you carry inside of you, wherever you go, always intimately rekindling and redirecting your attention.

Write because your future self needs a map back to this moment. Write because the act of remembering is its own kind of healing. Write because it’s how you breathe. Your words don’t need an audience to matter.

Choose connection over mechanical marketing. Cultivate intimate connections and relationships with your audience. Approach your art like a wild garden, rooted in passion and shaped by your unique rhythm. Nourish your creative ecosystem by collaborating and supporting others, feeding yourself inspiration, and having multiple revenue streams.

“Our personal libraries are an intimate view into our soul, a letter of introduction and a language more honest than any talk. Books are also a weapon to heal ourselves, understand the real world, understand the loneliness or pain we carry.”
