Maria is an amazing writer & today she presents her book to us \u201cThe broken wings of my youth\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also talked to me about relationships, but also about her future plans.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Let's see what he told me:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Tell us a little about yourself and how your love for writing books began?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am Maria, a dreamer since childhood, a woman who was born many years ago in Athens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am married and have two wonderful daughters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I studied and worked in the field of aesthetics-cosmetology, but as a restless spirit, along the way I pursued other things that today make me happy and creative, such as writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My love for writing began as a child.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

I wrote short stories, created fairy tales that sprang from my imagination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was my secret that I hadn't even revealed to my family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I always had paper and pencil and wrote down my thoughts, until the time came.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

"Maybe the idea of writing my first complete novel had also matured within me."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.What topic does your book deal with?<\/strong>;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy latest novel, titled THE BROKEN WINGS OF MY YOUTH, published by EXI Publications, is a life story of my hero Stratos, who experiences the loss of his mother while giving birth to her second child in a village in Ioannina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just after forty days, the father himself leaves his children in an orphanage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He experiences all the rejection from his own father as well as the cruelty of his decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through events and situations, he loses track of his sister.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the love for this creature, his Rhinoula, and the vow of life he made over his mother's grave become his sole purpose.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

He comes to Athens as a young child, a psychopath, and from there his difficult path begins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fate intervenes and he finds his sister, but the German Occupation comes to devastate their lives once again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Athens-Thessaloniki-Auschwitz on a journey of a lifetime and on difficult paths that my hero walked with stubbornness and will.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Relationships are difficult these days. What do you think is the reason for this?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

"These days, yes, human relationships have become difficult because somewhere, I believe, we have lost ourselves."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most people invest in other things believing they will find happiness rather than in sharing life.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Because relationships take work and, above all, soul to build, and some people don't want to ruin their love."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. The economic crisis affects us all. What is your advice to young people who are just starting their dreams?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

"Clearly the economic crisis has affected us all. The realities of our lives have changed and to this day we are trying to adapt."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And especially now with the pandemic, I believe we should arm ourselves with more strength because adapting to the new economic realities will not be easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only wish for young people is that they do not lose hope.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

I know it's difficult, I see from my children how circumstances shatter their dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But life requires stubbornness and if you have it, even if it falls apart, you build it back up again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Write us your favorite part of the book that you want to share with us.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

"There are many things I love about the book and I can't single out any one."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This particular excerpt is found on the last pages of the book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I especially love it because the moment I was writing it and reaching the end, I burst into tears because I experienced the redemption of the heroes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

"We'll get old and you'll still call me Rinoula!" she said and laughed at him, looking at him tenderly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI called the painting \u201cThe Broken Wings of Our Youth\u201d and the doves are you and I, Stratos, who, although we bled, managed to fly and were freed from everything.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

You from the pain and longing you had to find me as a child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the demons that haunted you since your childhood, from the dreams that had no colors, but only the color of sadness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know what you did for me, Stratos, I know how you fought with your moral values and I know how you killed for my sake."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Favorite song and phrase at this time<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEspecially at this time due to Covid-19 and quarantine, I give rhythm to my everyday life with Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive, not only because its rhythm gives me optimism but also because it is my favorite song from my teenage years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for a life quote, especially in these difficult days we are all experiencing, I will tell you what I wrote in my book THE BROKEN WINGS OF MY YOUTH: "Nothing is lost unless we let it be lost."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7.What can we expect from you in the future?<\/strong>;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

"I hope you see from me nothing but novels drawn from my soul."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Books that I hope will be loved like the previous ones.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

And also, ending this nightmare, my book "SECRET LACE" will be released in bookstores, a reissued book that the reading public loved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That's why EXI Publications supported it and hopefully those who haven't read it will also have the opportunity to acquire it."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8.Where can anyone find you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey can find me on Facebook as well as in my group \u201cMYSTIK\u0130 DANDELA\u201d as well as on Instagram.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. A Wish for the Ex's Ghost By Tina Michaelidou<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

"My wish for you is that you continue to do what you do so well."<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It's important for all of us writers to have people who love books and support us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your hospitality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope that the beginning of this acquaintance will lead us on journeying paths through the pages of books.\u201d<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
