This list is far from being complete...

       Any offers are welcome. If you have a story, novella or a novel in English, I am ready to read it, to evaluate its chances to be published on Russian market, and to try to submit it on synopsis level. Alas, so far all my six attempts to find a publisher for a novel have failed, but with stories this scheme works rather well. If the story is accepted, I make the actual translation.
       I don't charge author anything for translation, because a publisher pay me for it. However, please mind that I am NOT an agent, and I can't deal with legal matters of publication -- this is a question to be solved between your agent and a publisher.
