Me, squeezed in a paragraph

I am a philologist fascinated by the metamorphoses of text on the Web, curious about the ways the Semantic Web unfolds. Currently I am a PhD student at the Sofia University, exploring how content writing is changing, changing us and the way we think, write and live. Read more about me

My Brave New Text

The Brave New Text is a book about web writing and how it transforms the way we communicate, exchange, experience and explore thoughts, ideas, goods. It is a kaleidoscope of perspectives through which you will see texts on the web, as new forms of textuality, as webs themselves, as processes that change us, word by word, link by link.

My Tiny Companion to Weaving Texts on the Web

This is a Web Writing guide to help you pave your own road to approaching web writing and making the best of it as a tool for growth, connections and more business.
