Hello Australia!

It was a great pleasure being interviewed by Paolo Aurelio Monteleone, who’s working at this radio station. We recorded this interview via messenger in the middle of the night! In this interview I talked about my books, all the beautiful adventures I experienced and revealed a bit more about my family and private life. It’s a good thing to reach the Italian community in Down Under and of course, the interview can be heard worldwide! Grazie mille Paolo Aurelio!!!

The first broadcasting will be on Sunday 6th november 2016, 5.30 am CET and will be broadcasted on other days to different hours! Just have a listen 🙂 on channel 1629 AM:

I’m pleased to announce, Joseph Beuys Association has appointed me as worldwide cultural ambassador!
I feel very honored and appreciate this a lot, as a wonderful recognition of my cultural work.

We will celebrate this announcement officially on coming July in Raito/Amalfi Coast-Italy!

Grazie mille, Maria Grazia Salpietro, President of Joseph Beuys Association

I met Soraya Tiezzi recently in Rome at the Teatro Trastevere event and by the occasion, she interviewed me, here’s the link to read it:

I decided not to read out of my book, as this is something the reader can do by himself. I told to the guests how the idea of this novel was born and developed over the years.

My editor and proofreader Werner Strähl and I were amused to tell to the guests some amusing points about my written sentences, how they sounded when he read them and called me in the middle of the night „hey Sina, but what the earth do you mean with these words? Please explain me!“.

Or we revealed some secrets around the book (especially the cover), which made laugh a lot the guests. And I was very impressed, as Werner read out of the book with his strong voice…everyone was frightened ;o)

Werner explains to the guests, the rules of a book
coaster and the seed box; that’s producing a book!

Proud of holding my new work in the hands.

Mille grazie, Guerrino/Werner, working with you was
a great pleasure and honour; you gave to my book
perfection and aesthetics.

Thanks to the staff of Panini-Bar for hosting us exquisitely &
you got the best „cioccolata densa“ in town!

The event will be held at the Panini-Bar in Aarau on Saturday 2nd November 2013, 6 – 8 pm with a closed group of guests. The event will probably be recorded and uploaded on Youtube ;o)

Signed copies of it are travelling already to Buenos Aires, Cape Town & Dubai!

Oh yes…in fact…it took ten years!

I am pleased to announce that I have just signed the publishing contract for my next book, so my first novel. I look forward to work with the publisher Benjamin Zumsteg and his publishing buchmodul.ch. After months of intense negotiations with various publishers, even with my first publisher, I’ve decided for a new way to go. The production of the book is underway and the release is expected to be 1^st November 2013 and also be available as an eBook. We have our sleeves folded back and are busy organizing the press and readings. Only so much can be revealed: in addition to the many coffee I drank while writing, coffee plays a major role in the novel ;o)

Watch out for more infos at the end of September, I’m really excited!!!

I’m glad to present you Dr. Margrit Zinggeler’s book, published by The Edwin Mellen Press N.Y.
Margrit published her study of authors from the Swiss „Secondo-Space“ and I feel honoured to belong to her selection of the 15 most prominent Secondo-Writers. Margrit gave to my „The Paper Factory“ a great opportunity to present my work to the US-market in her book.

Margrit and me met in 2010 in Solothurn at the well-known Literature days, where she interviewed me about my writing works and film project. Her perception about me is „Writing is an emotional process of her, with heart-blood, and she thinks about the emotions of the reader when writing. Recurring motifs of her works are love and relationships, and sensory perceptions in the countries where she travels; the smells, the sounds, and the entire sensorial palette.“ WOW!!! ;o)

Meanwhile the roadmovie „The Paper Factory“ is as DVD in rough version circulating, so I’m going to see which door will get open???

To Margrit from the bottom of my heart: Mille grazie!
