I have been working as a consultant in Portugal for the past 4 years or so. This means: I own a company. CEO founder yay. It could have been more simple for me, but the Portuguese freelancer/self-employed status (recibos verdes) massively sucks after the first year if you are doing […]

Une revue en français pour changer. De toute façon, plus de 900 pages pour ma version, est ce que ce livre sera un jour traduit en Anglais ? Au Printemps des Monstres est un livre roman/documentaire/enquête à la cold case/autobiographique dans lequel Philippe Jaenada raconte et retranscrit ses recherches sur […]

Resuming my Hemingway cycle after a few other books, which I won’t review here, I decided to pick up the next book from my bookshelf : a Moveable Feast. In this book, Hem shares his life in Paris in the 1920’s, working on his writing after quitting journalism, being all […]

Telepathic stalking, most of the time. Joe Chip, one of the regular […]

Last September, looking for something new, I bought a copy of Popshot Quarterly. It is a nicely illustrated magazine with short stories, flash fictions (I still doesn’t quite grasp the difference with short stories) and poetry. Some quick words about The Haunting issue, Autumn 2022. At first I thought it […]

Saigon
Following up on CoWorking.Coffee: pause, we have finally decided and acted on closing CoWorking.Coffee. We will not revive this platform. We will not try a new version or new business model. We hope it will live in the mind of people as an old school community place, as a way […]

CoWorking.Coffee: the End.





Sur un ton un peu moins corporate que d’habitude, voici une première revue littéraire en français, et peut-être pas la dernière. C’est Eki-Libre qui ouvre le bal. Attention, en tant que fan boy, il y a parti pris. Eki-Libre a été écrit par Kriss, YouTuber français vétéran en questionnement permanent. […]
