Saita Publications and the wonderful Iraklis Lampadariou, the owner of the “general order”, fulfilled a latent desire of
mine: that one day I might cast onto a Saita some of my short stories, which in
one of their flights will bring to many acquaintances-strangers, literature
searches and nostalgic valuations. As with each day that we are becoming more
digital I saw, I got inspired, I wrote, I published!
Everything was about placing my trust in the
publications which –as innovation-brighten Greece with their work, as they do
not gamble the writer’s dream; they make it come true selflessly!
