Bio

The Honeyed Knot is the title of a short story by Jeffrey Ford.

So yes, the fact that it has also become the title of this journal proves how greatly I enjoy science fiction and fantasy and especially Ford's work, but it does not stop at that.

In said short story (which you really ought to read if you haven't, in fact you really ought to read Jeffrey Ford period), the honeyed knot refers to the ways in which random situations, ideas and/or people can turn out to be all connected; how some separate events can all fall into place; how those situation/ideas/people may interact with one another even when you're not quite sure how... if like me, you've encountered a certain number of so called coincidences and strange situations, you know the feeling.

And this is a grand welcome to my brain... which is one hell of a knot (I don't really know about the honeyed part) and which will be reflected in this journal. Indeed, if you intend to follow the posts of this journal, you may encounter discussions about literature (genre and mainstream occasionally), tv series (most of which are listed in the interest section), cinema, comics, mangas, animes, issues of translation and language, publishing, fanfiction, podcast, podiobooks, audiobooks, feminism, race, gender, literary criticism... all wrapped up in one nice and messy and ok, honeyed... well, knot.

Consider yourself warned...
