Hello. It’s been a busy period, hence my absence from this site. Everyday pressures like work oftentimes require us to step away from our personal projects. I am, however, happy to say that my first book, “From Ashes She Rises,” is finally here, available in paperback. For those wondering about the ebook version, I’m dealing with some formatting issues but hope to have those resolved soon. Thank you for your patience.
Putting together this book was quite the experience, but if there is one word I can use to describe it, surreal comes to mind. Seeing my name on the cover and the words I painstakingly chose to write for each Haiku, mini stories that give readers a glimpse into my life as well as a period that “marked” me and put me on my current path is hard to describe. You put yourself out there so that you can help others who encounter similar challenges, to give them strength when they feel they don't have it. What I know is this: no one is ever alone and with a little courage, faith and gumption, you will get through it and come out to the other side.
I hope you enjoy reading this book of poetry as much as I loved creating it. Thank you for your support.
And now? It's time to finish drafting my first novel. It's a family saga that spans decades, touching on the lives of a Greek family that experiences incredible events and challenges. I cannot wait for you to read it!
