Hello. I'm a Portuguese science fiction writer. In my country I've published an award-winning collection of short-stories (O FUTURO À JANELA - The Future At the Window - that I've made available online at this link), a couple of novels, and several short-stories and novellas in anthologies, newspapers, magazines, etc. In English I'm published in the web (Fantastic Metropolis and Infinity Plus). I've also published in Spanish and Serbian magazines, and in the Argentinian ezine Axxón.
I keep a blog in English at LiveJournal and a Portuguese one at my TecnoFantasia website. In this blog over here, I intend to post English translations of some of my shorter works and snippets. You're all invited.

Bem vindos. Sou autor português de Ficção Científica e Fantástico. Entre outras publicações, sou autor de O Futuro à Janela (Prémio Caminho de Ficção Científica 1991), Cidade da Carne e Vinganças, e co-autor de Terrarium com João Barreiros. A minha obra mais recente trata-se da novela «Aquele Que Repousa na Eternidade», uma novela lovecraftiana incluida no livro Sombra Sobre Lisboa.
Há pouco tempo decidi disponibilizar o meu primeiro livro na internet, para poder ser descarregado e lido de graça por quem esteja interessado, neste link. Inclusive fiz uma pequena apresentação interactiva sobre o mesmo, que aqui vos deixo:
E dia 21 o meu conto A VIDA DA MINHA HISTÓRIA é publicado na antologia FICÇÕES CIENTÍFICAS E FANTÁSTICAS que sai juntamente com o jornal Público:
