About moi & Signed Copies of my Books

Christina Strigas is trilingual, raised by Greek immigrants, and has written three poetry books. Her latest, Love & Vodka, has been featured by CBC Books in, “Your Ultimate Canadian Poetry List: 68 Poetry Collections Recommended by you.”

Her fourth upcoming poetry book, Love & Metaxa, will be published in June, 2021.

She has also written two novels for MuseItUp Publishing. One is a paranormal romance, Crush, and the other is a romantic/erotic novel, The Wanting, written in first-person narrative by the two main characters.  Both have had excellent reviews.

Christina Strigas’s most recent book is A Book of Chrissyissms: The Only Way to Find Art is to Lose Touch with Reality. This book portrays Christina Strigas’s inner perspectives, explaining her viral quotes, popular poems, and an evolving outlook on life. Based on reader commentary, journal entries, social media, and life, Strigas depicts what it all means: being a writer, a mother, a friend, a confidant, a mentor, a teacher, a wife, and a member of society.

In her spare time, Christina enjoys foreign cinema, reading the classics, and cooking traditional Greek recipes that have been handed down from her grandmother.

She is also co-founder of @ArielPoets on Twitter.

Oh I love the Sookie Stackhouse series. I discovered the Twilight series after seeing the first film and really enjoyed reading them at the time, but strangely the subsequent films have put me off a bit, which is a shame.

Good luck sending off to publishers!

That’s a beautiful photo at the top of your blog – where’s it from?

Hi Sally,

Thanks for the feedback…I just sent my manuscript to New York…crossing my fingers. The photo is from the template offered on the blog. I wish I could say I took it!
As for the movies, I agree with you. I always prefer books to movies anyway!

We can always use more sexy vamps! Don’t understand the lust we have for them, I just know it’s there. Best of luck with the business side of things…can’t wait for it to come out. And I’m with you…sorry to say I’m a tree killer reader too. Paper all the way!

As one of my beloved followers, I would like to extend my sincere thanks and gratitude by sharing with you my exciting news of becoming a newly published author! And, of course, I wanted you to be among the very first to get a chance to read the rest of my debut novel, The Legacy of Blood, now available in e-book format.

(No worries if you don’t have a Kindle or other e-reader device, they have free ones to download on your computer. I went on Amazon and downloaded their “Kindle for PC” absolutely free! Love it! Here’s the link if you need it: http://www.amazon.com/gp/kindle/pc/download .)

Again, I want to thank you kindly for all the support. And you never know, as some of my followers have told me, you could say you’ve had a big hand in helping make Shelby Westland a household name! 😛

Hi Erika, thank you for following and I will check out the challenge but I’ve been crazy busy the last couple of days, end of the year craziness…so I will definitely read your stuff next week when I take a breather. lol
Thanks so much for reading my poems and nominating me for a challenge. Depending on my mood and state of mind I either am up for the challenge or will decline politely.
Please don’t take it personally! I appreciate all your comments and will get back to you shortly! Enjoy Father’s Day with your loved ones.

I’m so flattered you placed my avatar so prominently on this page. I appreciate the follow. Congratulations on being able to publish three novels, soon to be followed by a book of poems. How do you do that with your own operation and minding kids too, to boot! Well done!

Thank you for your words of encouragement. I go crazy, but I love it. Hardly sleep and go go go. Can’t wait till my vacation! I have no control of my avatar, I wish I knew what I was doing, but sadly the computer controls me more. I just click buttons, save and pray for the best. Have a great day, Karina. I had a student with that name. Just adore it. x

Wow, I have to say I really admire you! As a writer just starting out on the road to publishing my own work (I have published one book of poetry on smashwords so far), I know just how much work that is.

Best of luck to you, I hope you continue to succeed and see your hard work pay off more and more!

Dear Chrissy,

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and for the follow ! Means a lot for a beginner like me who has just got into blogging. From being an introvert to an extremely reluctant writer who has now plunged into public forum with her poetry creations….I am nervous yet excited !

Your work is very inspiring and I am certainly going to follow you. Would very much appreciate your feedback and comments on my poems.

Thanks again and my very best for all your future endevours !!
