Stina's Taxidi

Welcome to Stina’s Taxidi! What the heck is a "taxidi", you ask? After some strenuous, mind draining research (hey, clicking "search" on Google can be tiring!), I decided to incorporate my Greek roots into the title. Taxidi means journey, and that is exactly how I view my life from the moment I decided to become a writer: a journey.

About Me

Stina Kanaris: Who Am I? Please to meet you *tips hat*, my name is Stina, and I am an alien. Seriously, I'm not lying, I'm a Canadian who moved to the USA four years ago to marry her American hubby. I am a freelance writer that has written and produced young adult inspirational plays for various churches and schools. I also write short stories (*cough*that have won awards*cough*) and have just finished my first novel. My Credentials? None, zero, zip. I went into school to become a Children's Pastor and came out remembering my passion for writing. A year later I got married and moved to the USA where I worked as a kids ministry director, a personal assistant to the disabled and a food line worker. Join me on my taxidi as I chime in with my (usually positive) thoughts as I venture out to find the literary agent who will represent my novel. Here goes nothin'!
