Hi there!  My name is Annarosa, but you can call me Nina. I am here to read stories and kick out mine. I am an Italian born speaker, who  reads and writes both in English and Italian. I love sci-fi and fantasy books and contemporary novels with a hint of magic. By now I am working mainly on an English novel set in Italy in the 90s and on a series of short twisted fairy tales. All illustrations on this page and on my blog "The Charming Cookie Jar" are all done by me.
