Sebastiano_Lanza

Sebastiano Lanza is a writer, script writer, author of That Which Must Happen, a novel about fate.

Born in Catania - Sicily, Sebastiano has never held any interest in writing until - aged 16 - he tumbled upon the works of Pirandello. A spark had flickered. Always up for intellectual mischief, already busied in his studies, he delved deeper into writing theory and techniques, as he acquired a taste for avant-garde works of art - be it music or novels - and the theatre of the absurd.

Despite his love for creative writing - and he continues to be extraordinarily fond of it - Sebastiano feels novels alone are not enough to convey the complexities of his work. So he resolved to try his hand in script writing.

Currently - together with his team - he is working on Burn My Shadow, a dystopian graphic novel set in 2113, a world ravaged by climate change, as he continues to be involved in numerous other works, novels, and comic-books - which he's not yet ready to talk about.

Amidst other praise, Sebastiano's works have been defined by various reviewers as "educational and thought-provoking", "a spiritual journey for the reader".
