NOW!!! The first book + St. Petersburg!!!Забыв и это, и то...
Ты видел вдали волшебный огонь,
Который не видел никто...
И часто тебе плевали вслед,
Кричали, что пропадёшь.
Но что тебе досужий совет?
Ты просто верил - и шёл на свет,
И я знаю, что ты дойдёшь...
("Машина времени")
КНИГА
СВЕРШИЛОСЬ!!! Книга, моя первая книга наконец-то вышла в свет!!! Неужели такое возможно??? <:}
Не могу поверить, что я действительно смогла довести это дело до конца... Замысел книги зародился в далёком, как кажется мне теперь, 2000-ом году, когда я была студентом первого курса факультета филологии и журналистики ЧелГУ (Челябинский Государственный Университет ), и когда жизнь казалась мне ни чем иным, как сладкой сказкой (ох, какие мы были наивные! X} )
Мой "долгий извилистый путь" тогда лишь начался. Учёба, практика, море проблем... Порой я забрасывала своё "графоманство" на месяцы с твёрдым намерением забыть всё это. Первая любовь, первая разлука... Активная интернет-переписка, виртуальная жизнь... Вторая любовь, казавшаяся уже вечной и нерушимой... Фан-сайты... Козни завистников... Открытие фурри-движения и знакомство с фурриками... Порой мне казалось, что я точно свихнусь от такой бешеной череды событий. XP
Всё же к концу 2007 я не выдержала. Собравшись с мыслями, я буквально заставила себя дописать почти законченное произведение - и наконец СВЕРШИЛОСЬ! - летом 2008 "Леди Золотой Грифон" наконец-то увидела свет.
О чём моя сказочная повесть или, если хотите, роман? Если вам нравятся произведения в стиле фэнтези, сказки, детская литература - думаю, вам понравится история юной Кристины (более известной как Голди-Гри ) в мире, полном сказочных существ (как уже известных вам, так и совершенно незнакомых ). В мире, полном смертных созданий - и бессмертных Богов. В мире, полном загадок и приключений. И главное - в мире ГРИФОНОВ... Признайтесь - много ли вам попадалось книг, где Грифоны были бы главными героями, а не в очередной раз бессловесными, рабскими или эпизодическими персонажами?..
(Господи, ну невозможно петь дифирамбы собственной книге! Вдруг, кроме меня, это вообще больше никому не понравится?.. XP )
Да, как вы уже поняли, в главной роли выступает Голди-Гри (кажется, я никогда ещё не упоминала этого, но этот персонаж был сразу задуман мной как герой книги, и лишь потом стал моей "фурсоной"). Любопытно, что вначале люди узнали о ней как о моём аватаре. Что ж, теперь вы знаете, как и для какой цели на самом деле появился этот герой. ;}
Хотелось бы сказать огромное, по-настоящему огромное спасибо всем своим друзьям, приятелям, родителям - за любовь, веру и поддержку. Я начала книгу без вас - но закончила её точно с вашей помощью. ;} Самое Большое Спасибо хочется сказать
- ЗА ВСЁ (и конечно, за чудесный рисунок для обложки! ;} ). Надеюсь, тебе понравится мой маленький "сюрприз" в моей книге. ;}И поконкретнее... Твёрдый переплёт (гладкая глянцевая обложка ), шитый блок, 330 страниц, хорошая бумага. Сотня авторских ч/б иллюстраций (хотя, честно говоря, язык не поворачивается назвать "иллюстрациями" простенькие маленькие скетчики, намалёванные обычной гелевой ручкой... XP ). Цена книги - 200 рублей. При заказе книги из других городов (наложенным платежом ) к обычной цене будет добавлена стоимость доставки (зависит от вашего города ). Естественно, при желании заказчика подпишу книгу и может, даже набросаю вам там что-нибудь на память. ;} Заказы начинаю принимать уже сегодня - кто желает приобрести себе или в подарок друзьям, просто пошлите мне note или email. ВАЖНО! К сожалению, скорее всего, лично рассылать книги начну лишь ПОСЛЕ 5-го августа. Всю вторую половину июля я буду отдыхать в Санкт-Петербурге (читайте новость ниже!). Впрочем, если вам не важен мой автограф - вы можете получить мою книгу уже в июле. Мои родители, остающиеся дома, с радостью выполнят ваш заказ. :}
Итак, если вы любите сказочные повести, фэнтези и Грифонов - не упустите свой шанс (тираж совсем небольшой )! ;}
САНКТ-ПЕТЕРБУРГ
Санкт-Петербург... Боже, как давно я там не была! X} В принципе, я была там уже минимум три раза, но бесконечные выматывающие экскурсии - часто не совсем то, что хочется, верно?..
Я буду в Питере с 17 июля по 3 августа (да, полмесяца!), вольная, как ветер... Ну, практически вольная. Я навещаю своего друга . :} Если кто-то из моих вотчеров (или просто заглянувших на мой аккаунт ) живёт в Питере (или будет там в указанный период времени ) - почему бы не встретиться и не познакомиться? ;} Если кто-то из моих потенциальных заказчиков живёт в Питере - я смогу захватить для вас книги. ;} Особое обращение к фуррям!! В Челябинске не слишком-то большая фуррёвая "община", так что буду рада новым "пушистым" знакомствам и встречам! ;} Увидимся через две недели! X}FOR THOSE WHO SPEAK ENGLISH
Sorry, I'm afraid I won't translate all the information into English this time, because my current news should be interesting for the Russian people only... 8/ But who knows..? So, to tell a long story short:
My first important news is about my first book (children's fantasy novel) - "Lady Golden Gryphon". If you're interested in Gryphons and know the Russian language (or just love Gryphons too much), than you may be interested in adding my book to your collection. Though I'm not sure yet how you'll be able to order my book... 8/ The book is hard, glossy covered, with a hundred of small b/w illustrations. 330 pages, the paper of good quality. I'll surely sign your copy, if you'll be interested in getting my autograph. <:}
What the story is about..? I guess it's called "quest" or "adventure". The story of the young human girl (or maybe <not> human..?), named Christina, and the world, full of riddles and secrets, impossible creatures and even more impossible Gods, unlikely friends and powerful enemies... and majestic Gryphons. The story of the Golden Gryphon Clan. The story of the long quest and soul research... *ahem* Well, sorry, it all makes sense only if you know Russian. <:}
The second news - I'll be on vacation in St.-Petersburg (one of the biggest and most beautiful cities in Russia), from July, 17th till August, 3d, visiting my best friend,
. If you're, by any chance, planning to be there at that time - why don't meet? ;} I'd like to meet new people, and what's more important, I'd like to improve my English (I speak it *MUCH* worse than I write it, believe me).And for those who're "true" TR fans...
Terribly sorry that I didn't answer most of you. You know I had some reasons not to do that. First, by all means, I prefer talking to mature people (mature = open-minded, unprejudiced, not blind and not deaf). Second, my business is NOT ARGUING. My business is TELLING THE TRUTH. The ones who can accept it - will accept, the ones who can't - well, excuse me. I definitely have much more interesting things to do, as you can see. What can be MORE stupid and worthless, than trying to prove anything to the ones who just DON'T want to (or CAN'T) accept the truth..? I tried it once, long time ago. NOT pleased. Trying to prove something to morons is surely the most stupid thing on Earth - idle talk, you know. As for mr. Forsse, I hope I'll be able to deal with him after my vacation. I won't stop drawing his characters anyway, because they're really nice, in contrast to the creator... What more can I say? He knows my name, he knows my number. I'm ready.

I did try to write a book a while ago, but don't seem to have the patience that you do
As for the truth I do think I agree with you, though the people who lock themselves up against it, perhaps simply lack the strength to face it. For some I suppose, truth is hard to accept and they fear it, but still the truth is still always there. Anyway before I go and fall of the track. Have a great vacation!!
p.s. draw what you love to draw, no-one can ever get in the way of that

they were rather benign in nature. I kinda laughed it off at the time and went on with my life, feeling very sorry for her in a way. Obviously communism has taken it's toll on the land she lives in, and I chalked it up to that. Frustration about her continued use of such images & "Fan Fiction" stories eventually grew into pity.
Olga speaks of wanting the "truth" but denies having ever posted works that rightfully raised red flags with Teddy Ruxpin's creator. Really seeking the truth starts with being truthful with and about yourself, Olga.
Now, it's a whole new ballgame.
Olga's obsession with taking these beloved children's characters and warping them into something unrecognizable to true fans has now been eclipsed only by her obsession to show the world she will keep doing so, even after she was apparently given a Cease & Decist warning by Teddy Ruxpin's OWNER. Olga certainly doesn't think the rule of law applies to her... something also possibly to blame on communism, but she has also disregarded simple standards of human decency. Comparing Ken Forsse, a man who eclipsed what Olga Bolshakova will ever be at a very young age working for Walt Disney, is moronic and very insulting to me, as I know Ken personally and don't find a shred of Tweeg anywhere in his personality. I admittedly, and thankfully, do not know Olga Bolshakova personally, but from five years worth of correspondence, I definately see some similarities to a certain Troll/Grunge that lives in a Tower. In fact, I think the word Troll is the one word that describes Olga better than any other.
Now, it seems, the world will be subjected to a book by this twisted individual. It seems to be rather large in size... so I hope for the sake of Russian youth that anyone who purchases it is short on firewood this winter and must make the sacrifice. I wonder though, now that she herself is a published author, and no doubt loves the characters she created, how she cannot see the point of view of another creator, who also loves his work, and simply asked her to not continue taking liberties with it. I wonder how Olga would feel if someone took her characters and warped them into something unrecognizable to her & the fans of her work?
Olga has also threatened to sue Mr. Forsse... when I heard that I laughed. Even in a world besieged with frivolous lawsuits, any lawyer with an ounce of common sense would laugh Olga right out of their office if she brought in such a claim. Her other comments, such as she hopes to "deal" with Mr. Forsse after her return from vacation, are veiled threats no doubt. It brings a level of sadness to the issue for me. A creator can't even be open with true fans in today's world without having nutcases like this disrupt their privacy and then make sheepish threats to them when they are handled appropriately for doing so. I hope Olga takes a real hard look in the mirror and asks herself if she would like her privacy to be breached in such a way....
She has also accused me of being the one to tell Mr. Forsse about her site, and "Lying" about the contents of it. That's the one and only statement she got at least half right... indeed it was me who warned Mr. Forsse of the indecent liberties being taken with his characters, when he spoke of this "Russian" fan who had contacted him the hair stood up on my neck, moments later my worst fears were confirmed when he read it's name.. "GoldyGry". I'm just glad I warned him before the phone call.... I would have hated to have seen Mr. Forsse's good name attached to such a devious piece of work as GoldyGry creates... and no doubt the kind and generous man he is would have granted her an interview had he not known otherwise.
But lets boil it all down some... there are basic rights we all hold dear... one of which is ownership of property. We cannot expect to have our rights respected if we do not respect the rights of others... Olga has totally disrespected the Teddy Ruxpin storyline and it's creator, but at the same time has published her own works and expects payment for and ownership in these published works... seems a bit hypocritical to me. It shouldn't matter if GoldyGry continues to lie to herself about the origins of the concern about her work, nor should it matter if these pornographic stories really didn't exist (which they do) if the owner of something wants you to stop messing around with it.. you should.
I'd like to hear in her own words how she can reconcile this. Why is it OK for her to totally walk over the rights of others but expect her rights to be respected? I'd also like to hear how Ken Forsse in any way has violated her rights by simply asking her to quit fooling around with property that is rightfully his. And finally, I'd like to know why GoldyGry thinks it's okay to make threats against Mr. Forsse when she totally disregards the friendly warnings she has recieved to cease infringing on his works. I just can't get my mind around this... so I'd like for her to explain.
And finally, I'd like to just remind her one more time that she doesn't own the World of Teddy Ruxpin... and that she also has no right to continue infringing on the personal privacy of anyone.
I'm sure Olga will take this down, as she has never been one to respect dissenting points of view, (perhaps an example of communist rule more than any other I've cited) but until the point where she stops drawing porno images of children's characters for a minute and takes the time to do so, I hope this reaches a few people anyway.
