Welcome to the Adventures of the WindyCity Greek!
YOU FOUND ME!
Since the name WindyCity Greek has become synonymous with me, the founder, publisher, and editor of WindyCity Greek magazine which was published from 2015-2019, I’ve decided to keep the name to use on my new blog!
Maria A. Karamitsos IS the WindyCity Greek!
It’s a multi-faceted blog, where I’ll be writing about books, writing, even providing tips to others from my years of working in the media. But here, you’ll come along on my adventures! I’m still as passionate as ever about sharing the stories of amazing Greeks around the world. I’ll be sharing some of these stories on other Greek media outlets, but others I will share here. Be sure to follow along.
Let’s go! Check back here occasionally, as well as like and follow me on social media to find out when there’s a new post.
