At midnight, as the eternal Crown Prince Bario, sleeping in his bedroom in the palace of Kilimanjo, with his left foot resting on his wife, Phyllaria, and his right arm around her breasts, the cry of an owl was heard outside the open window. Bario and his wife Phyllaria did not react to the owl’s cry and continued to sleep. Then the owl flew closer and sat on the stone fence of Kilimanjo’s palace and began to make a heart–rending cry, and to shit its white, poisonous droppings on the fence wall. Then the owl fluttered up several times, spreading its wings wide. At this the owl fluttered so that the delicate side feathers ruffled, then the owl fluttered its wings again, and from under the right wing flew out a silky feather with delicate long tufts on the tips. The owl feather was in the natural air current and flew into the open window and flew into the prince’s mausoleum and circling over the face of Prince Bario, sat in the area of the nose and began to make spinning movements.

Below you can find our interview. Take a seat and enjoy your reading!!!
- Where did you find inspiration for writing the book?
I don’t know how other people find inspiration and write novels; I don’t know what kind of motivation they need. Maybe they are secluded, they need silence to concentrate. But I don’t do that, I don’t need neither time nor silence. And I can’t tell my relatives, everything is quiet, I’m going to write a novel. And then I sit down and write. I can’t do that. I don’t know how I do it, thoughts come by themselves and sometimes there are so many of them that I really start typing so as not to miss these thoughts. Thoughts come to me even late at night, it’s like a dream when you sleep, but it’s not a dream, but a series of thoughts and it wakes you up, then you have to get out of bed, hide your laziness, and print and print. Sometimes there is a fear that I will not be able to write down these thoughts on paper, because there are so many of them and often, I am afraid of losing these thoughts. But over time, I began to memorize the main words and the train of thought themselves give out information, and I write everything down on paper. I don’t think that I write because I like it and I need it, no, sometimes I don’t like it and even sometimes it bothers me a lot. And sometimes I don’t want to write. But time passes, and thoughts come and go, when there are a lot of them, my head starts to hurt, my brain becomes heavy. And thoughts come and go, I see the course of events of these thoughts, and I see them in reality, and I have to write. And I write until my thoughts run out. But now, I have become happy and I am really happy when my thoughts end, and then I stop writing. But sometimes thoughts don’t come to me at all, for a month, two months or more, then I enjoy life. But when thoughts begin to come, some events, and there are many events, and I choose among these thoughts which main idea and make it the main one, which will become my book, my novel. And I begin to print these thoughts on paper. Of course, I can’t deny, and I say again that my subconscious mind constantly comes up with some events, and sometimes it doesn’t fit in my brain, then I have to type these thoughts, but I have to understand the meaning of these chaotic events in order to reflect these chapter events. Writing a novel is a process where I express my thoughts, what manifested in my subconscious. When I write a novel, I don’t focus on the reader. But I think, and I will realize that I will be happy if my novels are truly and truly appreciated by the reader, and I will be satisfied with them. I think the reader himself will figure it out and understand what the novel is about and whether this novel is interesting to him.
- What message do you want to send with your letter?
It is important for a person to realize that thoughts, values are given by God. And these thoughts, whether they are important or not, will still lead to better changes in me and my writing experience. If some of my wishes in the past come true in the future, then this will be a great motivation for me to write new novels.
- How did your passion for writing start?
Just started writing. I never had free time, I did science, wrote dissertations. I don’t know how I got into writing. And those thoughts that came, I reflected on paper. But I began to write seriously after the loss of my mother. She told me amazing stories about my ancestors. These thoughts were piling up on me. And I transferred it all to paper and put them on the table. And so I got a lot of manuscripts. Then I decided to publish my manuscripts.
- What was your publishing experience like?
There is no foreign experience.
- Do you plan to write more books?
Yes, I write and write all the time.
