A difficult question, that can only be answered conventionally. I worked ten years as an actor. Ten years as a developer. Three years of writing and studying poetry… The next ten years as a nomad (I hope)… while running this enlighting blog (at least for me).

I studied a bit of Sociology, more of Industrial Management, mostly Dramatic Art and Cinematography. I did and I am doing my best studies alone. While I’m not connected on the internet, I reads books, I have a big library in my house at Paleo Faliro. Lately, I’ve been reading mostly literature and philosophy.

I can answer what my worldly identity is, I can describe what I am not or what interests me at this time. My texts are original and written in Greek (originally). I practice and study the art of writing every day, but although greek writer, I am currently learning Italian and Spanish, I am strongly interested in the rhythm of any language, its music, its poetry.

At the beginning of 2020, I started writing poetry every day. Until then, I ‘ve writen childhood and teenage poems, but also verses that were melodized in stage plays. I now have two books of poetry collections in Greek editions: The Confinement of a Dream (published by Evmaros, 2022) and Parapera (published by Kedros, 2022). My third collection is ready and waiting for the right path to the printer.

My name is Nikos Drosakis, I don’t wear the tie of a professional, I have several professional IDs.

My land is any place that touches my poetic self and I touch it poetically, without being consuming it as a spectacle.
