About Me

  • Born in Brooklyn, New York, to first generation Greek parents, I moved to Florida in second grade. My fondest memories from elementary school were walking the two blocks to the nearby public library. It is a small library, not the city's main library, inside an very old restored building. My memory of going in and the smell of books is one I never forget. To me, it was the best time and best place to be.

  • KEEPER AND KID

    December 30, 2008

    • KEEPER AND KID is an exceptionally poignant coming-of-age story with a twist or two depending on the reader’s personal experiences and opinion. One twist is that the main character is a male who we witness “come of age” and the other is that this touching story is written by a male. Edward Hardy gives the reader a story that everyone will treasure and characters they will care about. ...
