I’m currently re-reading Michael Moorcock’s Elric saga. I first read it as a teen and it was an enigma to me. The books seemingly were all over the place, style-wise, then I stumbled across someone who suggested an alternative reading order besides Chronological. What a revelation! I always liked the books but had lent my books to a friend who only recently returned them in perfect condition some 30yrs later. 🙄😂

The Anti-Tolkien

Michael Moorcock once wrote, “I think of myself as a bad writer with big ideas, but I’d rather be that than a big writer with bad ideas”

Pensiero adiacente ai #LibriSegreti: da ragazzino ho bazzicato molto poco l'ambiente #fanfiction (grazie agli dèi la roba di Warhammer è andata distrutta, quella di accademia erotica... forse dovrei distruggerla) e negli anni ho indirizzato la mia grafomania verso poesie e blogging: non mi sarei mai aspettato che, a 30 anno e mezzo, mi sarebbe salito il ghiribizzo di scrivere narrativa proprio per fare fanfiction di un'opera altrui che mi risuona e ha da dire. Vediamo se ci metto pure #Elric 😂
