There are 31 days left until the release of Shreds – at least the paperback and eBook versions on Amazon. In the meantime, you can already check out some of the poems that have been published on this blog. I’m currently working on offering a variety of free and entertaining content, something a bit less “demanding” than a book of archaic English poetry. I hope to update you on this soon.

In the meantime, here’s a bit more info about it. If I’ve forgotten anything, feel free to remind me in the comments. Don’t forget that every poem included in Shreds is also available here on the blog, and many other related projects are taking shape behind the scenes.

“Shreds” will be on sale on November 9th and it is a collection of poetic fragments that spans the folds of time and my artistic evolution. Each poem reflects past moments, thoughts hastily scribbled down on forgotten scraps of paper or the margins of old books. Within these pages, you’ll find a blend of emotions, images, and reflections that have developed over the years, in different languages, yet always with the intent to capture the essence of what I was experiencing. This journey moves from my early, raw poetic explorations to more mature compositions, all tied together by the thread of my personal and artistic growth. “Shreds” isn’t just a book of poems; it’s a map of emotions I’ve gathered and now share with you.

As you dive deeper into “Shreds,” you’ll notice a gradual shift in tone and style, echoing the passage of time and my evolving voice as a poet. The earliest poems in the collection are abstract and conceptual, reflecting a younger self still grappling with the nuances of expression. By the time you reach the middle section, you’ll encounter verses that flirt with the structure of songwriting, a nod to my parallel journey as a musician. These poems are more grounded, easier to grasp, and reveal my growing confidence in storytelling. The later poems in “Shreds” mark a significant leap in both technique and emotional depth, capturing the essence of my experiences with a clarity that was elusive in earlier years. Through these varied stages, I invite you to witness not just the evolution of my poetry but also the growth of a person learning to articulate their innermost thoughts and emotions on the page.

The official launch of “Shreds” is set for November 9th of this year, a date that marks the culmination of years of scattered thoughts, jotted notes, and late-night inspirations. On this day, both the paperback and ebook versions of the collection will be available, offering you the choice to experience these poems in the format that suits you best. Beyond these initial releases, I’m also working on additional versions, which may include an audiobook, special editions, or other formats yet to be finalized. Stay tuned for updates as more details will be unveiled soon.

In the meantime, you can explore every poem featured in “Shreds” right here on this blog. Each piece is available for you to read, reflect upon, and share, giving you a taste of what the full collection has to offer. As the launch approaches, I’ll be sharing more content related to “Shreds”—videos, audio readings, and behind-the-scenes stories that delve into the creation of this book. Keep an eye out for these updates as we count down to November 9th!
