I have been interested in science-fiction and horror stories and novels since I was quite young. Amongst my favourite writers are Edgar Allen Poe, Robert Heinlein, Isaac Asimov, H.P. Lovecraft, and Stephen King. Stemming from my interest in science-fiction, I'm also interested in science-fiction art, and 3D art in general. At the present time I have finished a book on the Il-2 Shturmovik, a Soviet attack aircraft of the Second World War, aircraft, especially Soviet aircraft and history also being great interests of mine. This Il-2 book, called 'Il-2 Shturmovik: Red Avenger', is now available from Fonthill Media. I have also written a book called 'Lavochkin Fighters of the Second World War', which were very important Soviet fighters, also published through Fonthill Media, which is now available (2016). I have written a book on a Soviet medium bomber, called 'Tu-2: The Forgotten Medium Bomber', also published through Fonthill Media, which was published in 2016. My fourth book through Fonthill, 'Soviet Strategic Bombers: The Hammer in the Hammer and the Sickle', was published in 2018. My fifth book, 'Soviet Bombers of the Second World War', was published by Fonthill in 2019. My sixth and latest book, 'Soviet Fighters of the Second World War', is set to be published by Fonthill Media in the next month or two (April or May 2021).
