Not Quite Real

About Silvio Castelletti

Welcome to Not Quite Real, a place of suspended fictions.

I write stories about things I invent, or things that really happened, or things I invent inspired by things that really happened.

Or an amalgamation of all of them.

And because fiction always embeds an autobiographical component, whether consciously or unconsciously, I often can’t tell invention from non-invention, or dream from remembrance.

Every week I publish one of the following:

a short piece of fiction, or autofiction;

an issue from a series called Unsent Letters. These are letters penned (but never dispatched) to fictitious or real individuals who may or may not have influenced my life, not always mirroring actual events;

an issue from a series called diaries, uninterrupted.
