Russian bell: Almanac. Issue No. 1, 2019

I am writing an introductory word for the spring, the first in the new year of the Almanac “Russian Bell”, and a snowstorm is a snow -on the window. Winter does not want to leave my city. And someone already has spring, trees and flowers bloom, the sun pleases with its warmth. I envy: how wonderful it is when everything is buried in greenery and flowers. No pessimism is impossible when spring comes and nature wakes up. And at the same time, I rejoice that many authors who take part in the collection today have time for creative, spring awakening. You yourself, dear readers, will see for this, plunging into reading the first issue. So much love, the games of spring colors rejoice in his headings! But the main thing is not the weather outside the window, but the weather in the house! The more interesting a person lives, the more he has something to write about, to tell. The more good people around him, devoted friends who love relatives - the more energy for new achievements, actions, discoveries, development. The support of loved ones is the main engine in our lives. When you understand that others like what you do, the louder you want to declare yourself. Our almanac unites creative people, here the authors gain new friends, loyal readers worthy of critics of their work. And even if the weather, in their comfortable world, writers do not stop creating and delighting everyone around them. And we, readers, hiding from bad weather in our house, enjoy reading beautiful stories and lyrics.
