My BFF in Seattle has passed away

 Julia Petrakis

The Chronicles of Mark Johnson

Though I will not be able to prove my theory, I think my BFF, Julia Petrakis, who lived in Seattle passed away in March 20225.

I am led to believe this as I have had no posts forwarded to me, or emails answered since March 15th.

Our initial contact was on a business level, when Julia asked if she could edit my eBook, The Chronicles of Mark Johnson, which in 2012 earned an award.

Julia was the most ardent supporter of my work as a writer, we collaborated on several of my book projects, the last being The Awakening, a story set in India, which came about from a conversation I had with man living in India on the LinkedIn site.

 Julia's wish was for me to have been granted a writing contract, something which would have made me realise my writing had some value, she never knew that my hope for another story, Untold Truths,  which  saw could become a series never got off the ground.

Julia would have been 87 this year.
