It was my nameday yesterday and I had a lovely gift. You may remember how Patakis, a Greek publisher, has bought the rights to three of my children’s books. The first one, Valiant Smile, is now available in bookstores and I was tickled pink to see it on the shelf.

The book has already been translated into English, so I hope to publish it in time for Christmas. Many thanks to everyone who has helped with this and to you for sharing this journey with me!
