Writings
Writing is my way to escape reality. I have written — or started and never finished — countless stories and several poems. With my growing interest in computers, I have also become interested in writing articles and tutorials related to their uses, most particulary the internet. Below is a collection of texts I have written. Some sections, mostly the poetry one, are limited to my favorite pieces.
