The month of May, which is now beginning, will be dedicated to the theme of Women.

There is still no agenda for publications.

There is expected to be:

- Historyoem - Poem about a historical event

- Newsoetry - a poetry about the news of the month of May - on the last day of the month

- Poets, readers, and writers from home - a rubric that gives voice to those who want to be heard

- Little dreamers - poetry of my own, illustrated by children

- Haikus - on Sunday's

And who knows something more.

The backstage work continues.

Right now, I am preparing the pre-launch of the book “Animais Poéticos” and soon I will be able to announce the publication date of my first book. I am very proud to have coordinated this collective work, whose poems are all my own and which had the collaboration of 17 illustrators from three different nationalities. With a preface by Luísa Ducla Soares and published by Editora Flamingo. I feel my heart very full of happiness. 

April balance

For me, the month of April was a month of profound changes. I took an "International Coaching Certification" and attended an event called "Unlock you" where I was able to revisit my inner child, freeing the clown inside me. In fact, in the last year, I have invested a lot of time and money in my personal development.

During the month of April, the graphic composition of my first book “Animais Poéticos” was ready. We are now entering the pre-launch phase which is coming very soon.

Four Anthologies to which Nonô's poems sent his poems were published:

“Brisas de Inverno" (Winter breezes) "Toca a Escrever collection" (Come write)

“Liberdade Vol. II - Chiado Books” (Freedom)

“IV Vieira da Silva Literary Contest” (launching will take place on May 22)

That's all for today. Don't forget tomorrow is Mother's Day!
