Hi, my new friend! Thanks for request! Indeed, it seems we have a lot in common, will be glad to exchange some tips, opinions, etc in the future! ANd to have a look at your works too! Sc-fi and fantasy are among the most serious genres! Keep the good work going! LET THE WONDERFUL NOISE OF THE SEA ALWAYS SOUNDS IN YOUR EARS!
