Every week he writes a column for a Swiss newspaper about current affairs in Europanto, a language that he has invented.

His collection of short stories in Europanto, Las Adventures des Inspector Cabillot, will be published by Dedalus in May 2012 at the same time as his second novel, The Last of the Vostyachs.

His most recent novel Il Cane di Dio will be published in Italy in 2012 and by Dedalus in 2013.
