First Book Signing Event in Sissi

A very successful book signing event was held at the Yasu Bar in Sissi, on Friday 18 May. Friends of Tears from the Sun, gathered to witness the Reiki Blessing of the Book. It was a very simple but moving ceremony performed by Margaret Radcliffe of AlternativeCrete.com.

“In the name of all that is good, true, and brings love and light p – Bless this story, that it should reach into hears and minds. Bless the people who read it, to lighten their journey. May it bring happiness and joy to all.”

Dear Jane,
Valerie told me of your book and other writing success. I’m so glad that it all worked out for you and David. Your warmth and enthusiasm for life shines out of the photographs. Long may it do so.
Good luck with the other books in the pipeline. Thinking back to our holiday in Crete and the drinks we had outside your cafe. It was a magical time. May all of us experience such days again.
love and light, Margaret
