Once upon a time... Everything begins with once. And this is Sofia's dream.

She wants to edit her first book Murmúrio Infinito, with texts she wrote over the years. It's all about thoughts, emotions, sensations, stages of life itself - that are common to so many others - that will make readers laugh, cry, laugh, think and feel. Mostly feel... Delusions and illusions, (un)love, pregnancy, motherhood, happiness, sadness and tremendous respect and deep love for words.

She is the author of the blog with the same name as the book.

Given the economic conjecture of your household, the author is unable to realize this dream, alone, by resorting to this form of fundraising to make her dream - that she holds for many years - come true. It is intended to meet at least 800€, leaving the rest to the position of the author, to complete the total amount of the issue.

The Chiado Editora, accept co-finance the edition to 500 copies being distributed throughout the same country (Portugal mainland and islands), as well as conduct the session launch, with the purpose of promoting the work. It will arrive - also - to Brazil, with the possibility of ordering across the network of libraries and bookstores Saraiva e Cultura - the largest bookselling networks in that country.
