A tutorial of a writer"s success. Part I. Heinrich Schliemann and his lessons. (I am preparing information about the book). A diary note.
I could not to find Nina Kandinskaya's book "Kandinsky and Me" in electronic libraries.
I started looking for sites offering this book for purchase (for money) to people interested in the biographies of Wassily Kandinsky and Nina Kandinskaya.
In the process of these searches, I discovered sites where different people sell a variety of books.
After visiting one of these sites, I asked myself the question: "Why don't I put up for sale at least one copy of the book I wrote and published at my expense (A tutorial of a writer"s success. Part I. Heinrich Schliemann and his lessons)?".
I'm getting to know the site and its rules.
I don't like everything, but I decide to be patient. To search for another site and to understand the rules of another site?
A user name written in Latin letters is required. I am writing: Overwood. The earlier Anglicization of the surname Залесский (Zalessky) turned out to be very useful. (Readers can find out about this from my recently written and posted note on the Internet).
It is necessary to prepare and to post information about the book.
Using "copy-paste", I take the text: the information that was posted in the book itself.
I'm compiling it. What a result is?

I need to think... Maybe I'll add it a little later:
Залесский Владимир Владимирович
Учебник писательского успеха. Часть I. Генрих Шлиман и его уроки. - М.: Издательство "Перо", 2023. - 372 c.
Zalesskii Vladimir
A tutorial of a writer"s success. Part I. Heinrich Schliemann and his lessons. - M.: "Pero" publishing house, 2023. - 372 p.
The information about the book, in general, is ready.
Now I need to put a price.
If a book by Nina Kandinskaya (this book does not seem to be on sale, this book was not published at expense of very Nina Kandinskaya herself) costs a little more than 3,000 rubles, then I need to put price of 3,500 rubles on my book, published at my own expense (and it were a quite noticeable money). It seems to me that it is impractical to set a price above 3,500 rubles - with a today's book prices and with a today's purchasing power of the population interested in paper books.
What else?
I have prepared a more information:
"Ни бумажные экземпляры этой книги, ни её электронная копия не передавались - для продажи (реализации) - каким-либо юридическим или физическим лицам. Несколько экземпляров были отосланы в российские и заграничные библиотеки. Ряд экземпляров был подарен физическим лицам. На всех экземплярах (кроме обязательных, передаваемых издательством в Российскую Книжную Палату), были сделаны дарственные надписи.
При желании приобретателя на продаваемом экземпляре может быть сделана собственноручная авторская надпись: "Приобретателю этой книги автор желает успехов в овладении писательским мастерством и достижений в освоении иностранных языков."
Neither hard (paper) copies of this book nor its electronic copy were transferred - for sale - to any legal entities or individuals. Several copies were sent to Russial and foreign libraries. A number of copies were donated to individuals. On all copies (except for mandatory ones, submitted by publishing house to the Russial State Book Chamber), author's gift inscriptions were made.
If a buyer wishes, a handwritten author's inscription may be made on the copy, sold: "To the buyer of this book, the author wishes success in mastering of writers' skills as well as a good achievements in acquisition of the ability to speak and to write in foreign languages.""
However, only one paragraph fit (about the possibility, at the request of the acquirer, to make an author's inscription): there is a limit on the amount of text in the corresponding "window".
There was my intention to add the following phrase:
"В истории современного книгопечатания данная книга является одной из первых (возможно, первой) значительных по объему (более 100 страниц) книг (не принимая во внимание чисто научные работы, а также варианты близких языковых пар: "белорусский - русский" и аналогичные), лично переведённых автором с языка написания на иностранный язык (с русского на английский) и затем изданных.
In the history of the modern book printing, this book is one of the first (perhaps, the first) significant books, in terms of volume (more than 100 pages), (not taking into account a purely scientific works, as well as variants of close language pairs: "Belarusian - Russian" and similar ones), which were translated personnaly by an author from the language of writing into a foreign language (from Russian to English) and then were published."
But ... There is not enough space to place this phrase. So I had to refrain to place this text.
"Pressed" the necessary "button". The information appeared on the corresponding website.
However, 3-4 hours, if not a half of a whole working day, were spent on all this business.
I took care of household issues, and then wrote this diary note.
Will I find Nina Kandinsky's book "Kandinsky and Me" on sale? I hope I will find this book.
