SALTA Studio

noumena ashitaka hundimägi-mei

I made SALTA Studio because I couldn't stop. Because something in me keeps tapping the glass until I write. Once I heard Alan Moore say storytelling is almost shamanic — like the Paleolithic shamans started the tradition. I don't know if the history is clean. But the feeling? yeah. that part is real.
I have many unwritten stories. I have fewer written ones. That's not drama, it's math. My brain is packed with useless information and somehow I still keep space for stories inside stories, like nesting dolls with teeth.
Are they good? Probably not in the official sense. They're good for me. They keep me here. And if you find hope here — or just a warm second — then we're already winning.
You can figure out how to reach me.
Thank you

1. Short Stories

A bunch of small stories. Too personal. Some of them are clumsy. But they're honest, and that's what I have.

Find It
The Shaman
The World Of Men
A Crack in the Stone

I have no idea why I call them short stories. They are short for sure.

2. Children Books

For some weird reason, I think kids can read my stuff. Maybe that's projection. Maybe it's faith. But children can handle more truth than we give them.

Someone once told me my stories were too intense and obscure for children. I'm not so sure.

3. Graphic Novels

I collect graphic novels. I've tried writing some over the years, often for the wrong reasons. Now I'm writing my own saga, and a few one-offs are waiting in the dark.

Medea As Above So Below
Waves Echoes In The Sea
Sometimes I think I should learn to draw or learn to direct animation. My artistic limitations frustrate me.

Notes: these are early conlangs. They're messy. I'm making them better.
