"Echoes of Today" is a deeply introspective coming-of-age story about self-doubt, purpose, and the fragile art of holding on when life feels unbearably heavy.
At twenty-three, Eloisa feels trapped in a life that seems to move without her. Surrounded by people chasing success and certainty, she drowns quietly in her own thoughts-caught between who she is and who she's supposed to become. Every day feels like a balancing act between hope and exhaustion, between the desire to live fully and the fear of falling apart.
Through sleepless nights, fleeting connections, and quiet moments of self-reflection, Eloisa begins to confront the inner voices that tell her she's not enough. Along the way, she meets others who are also lost in their own storms-proof that she isn't as alone as she believes. Together, they navigate the messy, beautiful process of rediscovering purpose in a world that demands perfection.
Tender, honest, and achingly real, "Echoes of Today" explores the silent battles of a generation that feels everything too deeply and hides it too well. It's a story about learning to breathe again, to forgive yourself for not having all the answers, and to find meaning not in certainty-but in the courage to keep going.

Just Me Against the World
Lara has always lived in the shadows, convinced she isn't enough. The world feels overwhelmingly loud, too vivid, and far too big for someone like her. She hides from attention, avoids risks, and sees herself through a lens of self-doubt, her flaws magnified and her worth invisible. Life in the background feels safer, even if it means missing out on connection and joy. When a group project pairs her with Nathan, her confident and charismatic classmate, Lara's carefully guarded world begins to shift. Nathan exudes ease and charm, surrounded by friends whose laughter and effortless connection make her feel even more out of place. Yet, his quiet kindness and surprising attentiveness draw her in, challenging her belief that she doesn't belong. For the first time, Lara begins to wonder if maybe, just maybe, she's not as invisible as she thought. As she spends more time with Nathan and his friends, Lara slowly starts to open up. Their warmth chips away at her defenses, but it also forces her to confront her fears. She struggles with feelings of inadequacy and questions whether she's truly deserving of the attention and affection she's receiving. Her growing feelings for Nathan only intensify this internal conflict-can someone like him really see her as worthy, and more importantly, can she see herself that way? Encouraged by her steadfast best friend Bea and Nathan's quiet support, Lara begins the painful but necessary journey toward self-acceptance. It's a battle fought not against others but within herself. She starts to realize that her worth isn't defined by perfection or others' opinions but by embracing who she truly is. Lara's story is one of identity, courage, and breaking free from self-imposed limitations. It's about stepping out of the shadows and discovering that the hardest battles often lead to the brightest transformations. Will she claim her place in the world or retreat to the safety of the background?Concluida

Before the Answers | ✓
[COMPLETE] Every year on her birthday, Ahana opens a list. A list of questions. Some are silly. Some are sharp. Some feel like wounds pressed too hard. She answers the ones she can. She rewrites the ones that changed. And she adds more questions - because life never stops demanding answers. Because growing up doesn't come with closure. Because some questions linger year after year, waiting. ****** Ahana was always the girl with big dreams, perfect grades, and the kind of ambition that made adults smile and other teenagers step back. But at seventeen, she makes a choice no one expected. Not even herself. She walks into classrooms that don't inspire her, laughs with people who don't know her, and stares at the ceiling at 2 a.m., wondering if this is all she'll ever be. There are toxic friendships that drain her, and boys who don't stay. There's guilt for not loving someone back. And heartbreak from someone who couldn't choose her. There are late-night breakdowns, and moments of insane happiness. And always - always - there's the list. Through it all, Ahana keeps writing. Because the questions still matter. Because she's still trying to become the girl her seventeen-year-old self believed in. 'Before the Answers' is not a story of perfection. It's a story of almosts, quiet strength, and learning to be okay with not having all the answers.Concluida
Anoxia
Xylia has always teetered between madness and prophecy. For years she's dreamed events before they happen a gift that's left her paranoid, unstable, alone. In a world where consciousness is a bug and gods are algorithms with ego problems, Xylia will learn that reality isn't meant to be understood. It's meant to be rewritten. Here, divination is a sentence. And knowing the truth... is the first step to losing yourself. ✒️✦ This isn't a book. It's a gradual collapse. You won't find maps. You'll find glitches. Not heroes. Fractures. Not worldbuilding. But worlds that come apart while you watch. Xylia is a contaminated consciousness. She overthinks. She mis-feels. She fixates on details no one else sees. That doesn't make her wrong. It makes her real. If you feel lost, good. If you feel unsettled, stay. In this world, coherence is a lie. And breath... is something you learn only when it's gone. Welcome to Anoxia. The first 5 chapters in English are now up! Next batch (chapters 6-10) coming this Friday. This is an ongoing self-translation project - raw, glitchy, and deeply personal. Thanks for reading, bleeding, and glitching with me. 🖤 I'm Italian and I'm translating my novel myself-so if you spot errors or phrases that could be smoother in English, please tell me. You'd be helping me immensely! 👁️ Read Anossia and tell me what crosses your mind. Your comments are the heart of this project.
