Silvio, please do assemble all of these letters into a book. I would buy it in a heartbeat. You have something magical going on here and I love every word.
Crazy. This piece will be one of my favorites of yours. You managed to perfectly create in my mind (and I am more than sure also in that of all those who have read you) a clear, real and alive image of the transcendental atmosphere. And it might seem like an oxymoron, but it's true. Page after page, I believe you learn and decide to reveal yourself to yourself, as well as to those who read carefully. This is the most difficult and at the same time satisfying and decisive thing that any of us can do. And there is much more behind every word, your gloss is the emblem.
Even though I'm still not a cat lover (even if a little less so), I'm starting to hope to experience those 7 revelatory minutes too.
Thank you so much, Mari. So glad you could live the scene vividly in your mind. Writing is revelatory in many ways, but I strongly believe that through fiction we can express our essence much more profoundly. Thanks for the kind words about my writing. They mean a lot. :)
"After all, how could I decide that someone is trustworthy if I’m unwilling to trust them in the first place?" What I love about your writing is that you write things that could only be written by you. You are a singular person Silvio, as we all are I believe, but you manage to catch your own singularity out of the corner of your eye and express it. That's not an easy thing to do.
Thank you so much, Rick. These are beautiful words: “you manage to catch your own singularity out of the corner of your eye and express it”. Something i can see your writing as well. The luxury of being able to be fully yourself, with no one to please.
When is your book coming out?! I don't want to be a fan girl but the storytelling is 👌
This!

Nathan! Really, I’m so happy you like them! I have so much respect for you and your writing and your taste. This is so delightful to hear! Thank you!
100% on this too.
Vicky! Thank you, dear. We have to catch up. How've you been? :)
Nice, Silvio! Enjoyed this a lot.
Thank you, Oscar!
I couldn’t read this with a straight face. Because I was astonished halfway in. Bravo Silvio!
Grazie Camilo. Thanks for reading :)
I got chills
I know, right?
