Jazz music and improvising I've played jazz music for twenthy years, then I give up three years ago. Improvising was always an incredible ghallenge, I met a lot of wonderful musicians from all over the world and people that teached me a lot. Now I look behind and I see a beautiful route that has marked me in a very positive way. So today I don't have regret in my choice and when I start to write a short story or a novel, I basicly improvise starting to a few elements and see what happens.

Writing a novel Hi everybody. I'm trying to understand how to set a good plot. I have some ideas, but I've to develope in order to have good characters and mainly a very good story.

So now I'm going to put one of them along a street of my hometown and see what happens. And what are your favourite novel?
