"One day I dare to take up the challenge of learning some other (one or two)  languages, I hope. I was a child absorbed in reading. Now my passion and dearest  dream is to create a piece of literary work of my own. May it be the only one (like Margaret Mitchell’s Gone With the Wind) but of good quality. Of all trends and  types of literature I have got a soft spot for Fantasy and I do appreciate fairy tales and detective stories."
