I have your entire Slavic Ways series being delivered around January 2nd. I cannot wait! Hvala! Спасибо! Дякую! for even taking the time to write these. I've been looking for such information for over a decade. I now speak/read a little Serbo-Croatian as I've recently lived there for 5 years (and will be moving back there eventually) and so I'm beyond thrilled to see someone serious and dedicated enough to get information out to Slavs outside of the homelands. So thank you so much!
The only reason I started writing the series is because I have many Russian-American friends, who are unable to read and find the info that is available in Slavic languages. I also included the most important information that I thought was essential, so no need to dig through hundreds of books.
What you've done is something I wanted to do for that exact reason... well myself and others had no information in English. But I know enough people that I wanted to collaborate with to make it happen. :) So thank you! And I can't wait to get my books in!!
You're very welcome. If you have something specific you'd like to learn about, let me know and I will try to include it in my upcoming books.
I'll definitely let you know. :) I know I'll pick up your books and not put them down once I get them. I know for me I'm always fascinated in every aspect from mythology and creatures (which you have a book on), to deities (which you have), and things like superstitions, folk magic/practices, and anything revolving around the natural work of plants and animals and how they were viewed. But maybe you already have this covered in one of the other books. :) I was just glad you sent me the Page invite on FB for me to know that the books existed! And I'll soon be spreading the word about them.
Duso! Incredible photo of you as a profile picture! Captures so much of you are and what you are trying to achieve. And the shirt is just gorgeous! I cannot wait to acquire more ethnic pieces myself. Slava!
