We were happy to welcome in Athens, on November 25 both grand prize winners of 2022 contest , Ken Pisani and Hardy Griffin. It was a great ceremony which took place at the beautiful “Kombrai” bookstore/ cafe (Didotou 34 in Exarchia neighbourhood).
First to be honored was the author Ken Pisani (Grand Prize Eyelands Book Awards-Published Books/ novel) and then Hardy Griffin (Grand Prize Eyelands Book Awards-Unpublished Books/novel) whose book was published last October from Strange Days Books. Despoina Charalambidi, a prominent writer and previous grand prize winner of Eyelands short story contest gave them the ceramic trees -the handmade ceramic that represents Greek nature and culture. The two grand prize winners had afterwards the chance to say a few words about their work and answer to the questions of the audience.
Ken and Hardy thanks for the great moment thanks for your excellent books that honored our contest, thanks for being with us this wonderful day!
