Not long ago I finished my first collection, “Tales from Life,” which took about 10 years to compile. As the collection was compiled and individual tales were published on various resources, readers shared their stories. From your life, or the lives of friends and acquaintances. So, if the first 20% took 8 years to write, then the remaining 80% were written in just 2 years. Moreover, by the time the collection was published, the notebook had already accumulated abstracts for at least half of the second collection. Actually, this is what it is - the second collection of non-fictional stories, now mostly from the lives of the readers of the first. Of course, as the first time, names and surnames have been changed so as not to affect the interests of real people.
