“Trapped (inside) yourself” by Daniele Frau

Submitted to Contest #58

Understand your neighbors Sometimes wind it's all we need if our intent is to understand better our neighbors. For instance, if they're intelligent people, they will take their clothes inside when the wind starts to blow stronger. That's not the case of the family staying at the 38B, 28th floor, apartment 21/K in Blood Street. The name was called like that after an interesting fact happened 12 years before. The famous case of the Zone H Hero. I don't know why, but the heroes come always from the poorest neighborhoods. Interestingly, the m...

“The phone book” by Daniele Frau

Submitted to Contest #44

FramesDoors seem to be just another part of walls, bricks of glass. You'd imagine bombs dropping over your head, leaving then only a door, protecting the air from the air. No, there wasn't a war, not anymore. Just bombs of records and shots of thoughts dropping down from the ground of memories. The phone book was finally open, the fingers desperately searching for the last three numbers still intact, the eyes tired jumping from one page to another. He thought he'd call the first number, written with a dark blue ink, the pen he used when he ...

“A camel's shepherd” by Daniele Frau

Submitted to Contest #37

During a quarantine the streets look empty, invisible skins of silent snakes. Few shops are still open, and here masked men and women are busy making small pyramids of cereals and fruits. Then, they put everything inside a small bag and they proceed to send it to other masked men equipped with motorcycles.The heat is slowly taking over, it's the curse of living in the desert, in that line so close to that umbilical cord called Equator. The delivery guy sets just a foot outside the skyscrapers and the city lights, and what he finds is semi-wi...

Author bio

Here's where I speak about me in third person Early years Born in Cagliari in 1987, he suddenly started to speak a language, later called “Daniele Frau” (all rights reserved). After 18 long years he had his diploma in Teaching and Psychology and he was ready for University. University First, the University of Cagliari, where Daniele Frau graduated in Languages for International Communication. He studied Arabic and English, and Russian (A1) and Chinese (A1) in external university courses. In the meantime, in 2007 and 2009, he decided to improve the Arabic language in Tunis. Why Tunis? Simply because he was already working and living by himself, and Bourguiba University is a cheap but high standard university. University/2 But Daniele Frau wasn’t so happy about it. He wanted more. Arrived in Rome in 2010, he decided to enter first in ISIAO (Institution for Africa and Orient), while he finished the Three Years Diploma in Arabic Language, and then in Roma Tre University. Here he studied Arabic and English and graduated in 2014. Workwise Daniele Frau (which is still me speaking in third person) started early to work. Really early, 14 y/o. Later on he decided to start with selling, with good results, but it wasn’t enough. His dream was translating and writing, and step by step started collaborating with websites, blogs and translating offices. Today Today Daniele Frau is currently flying around the world working for a famous airline, taking inspirations for his books. Yes, started in 2018, Flyingstories.org is now the main website he’s running. The first story is about a dealer of soul, but step by step more stories will come (in Italian and English). In January the Italian version of the book Souls Alive becomes a real book (I mean, with a cover and all). Have a look! That’s about it, my friends. If you want to have more detailed information, just check the Linkedin of Daniele Frau. Boring stuff, though. I worked, I studied, I worked again, I studied again.
