It's that time of the month again! Here's a new contemporary Brazilian short story fresh out of the oven. Today we have the pleasure of featuring the work of Vanessa Emanuela, who's been writing since she was eleven, when she was hospitalized due to an asthma attack.

We've selected "My Misleading Mind" because it allows the reader to take a glimpse into the mind of a child in a very lonely time.

We hope you enjoy Vanessa's work and feel free to comment on it.
