Storytelling has always been a part of who I am. Whether it was re-creating a funny passages or crafting bedtime tales to help my daugthers drift off to sleep, I’ve always enjoyed bringing stories to life. My journey with "Gael" began 27 years ago, when a mix of boredom, creativity, and inspiration led me to jot down a few pages about the tragic life of an orphan boy. Over the years, my experiences, books, and movies fueled that initial idea, and a sudden need to rediscover and reinvent myself pushed me to finally take the first step in writing it down.

For me, storytelling is a passion, much like an artist's need to paint or sculpt. The trilogy of the "The city without saints" is important because it's a story I no longer want to keep hidden in my mind; it deserves to be told. Writing from the heart, I may not consider myself a traditional writer, but a storyteller at my core. Perhaps that’s what sets me apart – the raw, unfiltered connection to the stories I share.

In my work, I strive to live by three core values: honesty, humility, and empathy. These principles guide the way I approach storytelling, with a focus on connection and authenticity
