Welcome to 80s and Around.
If you are reading this blog, it is likely that you are a lover of the 80s... just like me.
My name is Claudia, and I belong to the so-called Generation X, so in the legendary 80s, I was a teenager. The music and lifestyle of that time still influence me today.
80s and Around was born as a journey into the memories of a generation that came of age between the more serious '70s and the more carefree '90s.
There's also an Italian version of the site, reachable from this link: 80s and Around Italia.
My other great passion, besides music, is literature.
I've been devouring books since childhood, and this has led me - even at an advanced age - to a new wonderful path: writing.
I love funny stories with original characters, but I write everything that comes to mind.
I write in my native language, but some books are available in English. Not many, but I'm working on it 😉.
If you like reading, between one musical post and another, you can take a look at my novels. They're currently available in e-book version (I'm a self-published author), but I'm working on publishing the paperback version.
A clarification: when I published my first story, I chose to use a pen name, so, you'll find Jennifer Simoni as the author's name on the cover of the books.
