From the Soul...
Where shadows meet the light, I gather stories and songs: gothic tales, local history from all over the place, and quiet reflections.
Creating is a solitary, often isolating act, a call into the void that too often remains unanswered.
If anything here touches your soul, let me know you’re there.
About Me:
I was born in Argentina, wandered through New Zealand, and since 2014 have called Australia home. Across all those landscapes, the only constants have been my writing and my family. Both anchor me — one in imagination, the other in love.
Writing has always been my way of daydreaming and making sense of the world. As a child, I lost myself in the worlds of others and started to create my own stories when I was 8. As an adult, my stories began to growth, both in length and in seriousness.
My literary heroes are too many to name, but their echoes live in my work. I read everything, though I’m most at home in magical realism, horror, and mystery — genres that twist reality just enough to let the uncanny slip through.
My own fiction aims to blend gothic shadows with a tropical flavour.
But I don’t stop at fiction. Essays and local history are passions of mine too, because every place carries hidden stories, and I feel compelled to unearth them. Researching the past is a way of conversing with ghosts; writing it down is a way of keeping them company. Reading their names out loud is a way of remembering them.
Music is another thread in this tapestry. I write song lyrics because songs inspire me to write — a wheel of endless inspiration. I can’t sing or play an instrument (trust me, you don’t want to hear that horror), so I use AI voices to bring my words to life. Still, I dream of others taking up my songs. If you’re a musician and feel moved to sing one, send me your version — I’ll gladly share your work. My lyrics are often lessons, either learned or still in the making. Sometimes they’re inspired by my clients’ journeys as a psychologist; mostly, they’re written to illuminate my own.
Before psychology, I was an Information Systems Engineer. Sometimes I think of it as my first life: a different country, a different profession. Now, I’m in my second. And though the landscapes have changed, the act of writing remains my constant: a way of reaching across the abyss, waiting for someone to echo back.
So if you find something here — a story, a song, a reflection — that stirs your soul, let me know you’re out there. Creation may be lonely, but connection makes it worthwhile.
