Yesterday was Pentecost here in Greece, which means a long bank holiday weekend with visitors from all over the country coming to see friends and family, attend church services, and take time out. It has also been a weekend of quiet, calm sunrises in the morning and feasting at sunset in the evening.
On Friday, we were at the Kali Strata restaurant, where our eldest godson grilled me the biggest pork chop known to Christendom, and our youngest one served it. Neil had a piece of tuna which was just about the same size. On Saturday, we spent the evening with their mum planning more of our winter trip, shooting the breeze, and catching up.
In between times, I started on my final read through of the next mystery, ‘Holywell Street’ and managed to get a little publicity done because someone has to try and sell these things, and that someone is me. I also push other indie authors’ work via free promotions. These, as I am sure you know, are lists of titles in a specific genre. Talking of which…
This one’s a selection of historical novels with some being romance, some comedy, some thrillers. Particularly intriguing is one titled, ‘The Organ Job (a musical mystery featuring JS Bach)’ by James Y. Bartlett. There’s also one called ‘Banyak & Fecks’ by me which is probably my most literary one to date, and not a mystery. It is a story of how a Ukrainian refugee and the son of an Irish immigrant come to meet and survive in the East End of London in 1884. It is a story about friendship.

That all sets us up nicely for the week ahead, and I’m just trying to think of what other news I might… Did I tell you Apostolis in Pedi is (or should be) now fully open? Mind you, by now, everywhere should be fully open. All village bars and tavernas are up and running and have been for a while… Nope, I can’t think of anything else of interest, so I’ll get back to my editing.
