Hello and welcome,

If you’ve found your way here, chances are you enjoy reading—and you’ve come to the right place.

Allow me to introduce myself:
I’m Othello Cody Verrocchio, though most of my friends simply call me Cody.



I only began writing professionally in October 2024.
Though I hold a Diploma in Journalism and have been building websites since 1999,
storytelling itself is still a new chapter for me.

If you’ve landed here first, welcome!
You can explore more of my stories and projects on my main site: othelloverrocchio.co.za.

If you clicked through from my blog, thank you for stopping by!
—I’m glad you’re here, and I hope you enjoy what you find.

Even so, I’m confident you’ll find something to enjoy in my stories.
