Below are my stories created in English so far. Some of them have emerged from my old beginnings written in Russian and Ukrainian. Some of them have been projected from the English speaking side of my soul as though I have never spoken another language. And all of them are the result of my striving to lift myself to a new level of mindset.
Genre: post-apocalyptic science fiction with mystical background
Time of the plot: distant future
Scenes: the Earth after flood, and near space
Themes: nature, humankind, environmental catastrophes, loneliness, exile, doomsday, spiritual journey

In 2013, the 1st version of this story was published in Dnipro literary magazine in Ukrainian language.
At that moment, I was just 23 years old. In 2018, as I grew more experienced and knowledgeable, I came up with an absolutely new story written in English. By no means can the new version be considered as a translation. Everything has changed apart from the very last lines. The hero, the storyline, and the decorations are now different. The story itself became 5 times bigger in size.
In March 2020, the story was published by Space and Time Magazine (issue #136—Spring 2020). It was my first professional publication in English.
Many, many thanks to the Editor-in-Chief Angela Yuriko Smith.

Without exaggeration, this one is the best story of my Russian-writing past. It was published in 2014 by the Machines and Mechanisms Magazine in Saint-Petersburg. The wonderfull illustrations above have been created by a professional artist Egor Shokoladov from Minsk (Belorussia).
