Silvio-Tonie is an emerging writer and poet on an artistic journey that combines ancient myths with contemporary themes, exploring the collective human psyche through a blend of personal and transcendent narratives.
Silvio's work, which evolved from a background in law, invites readers to reflect on their own personal myths, and their debut collection, ”The Blue Myth,” promises to be a culmination of this creative exploration.
In this episode of ”I Wanna Know,” Silvio and I embarked on a journey to explore how literature helps us find meaning in life. We delved into the transformative power of writing as a path to self-discovery, a way to navigate grief, and a means to express the shared experiences that unite us all.
Our conversation revealed how literature connects us on a deep level, the profound impact of mythology on our identities, and the importance of vulnerability in writing to build stronger bonds with others.
We also talked about how reading influences our own writing, the vital need for diverse representation in literature, and how creative expression can be a beacon of hope during tough times.
As we wrapped up the episode, we reflected on how even the smallest steps in your creative journey can lead to remarkable growth and profound insights.
