Hi!
I don't think this is against the rules, but if so I'll delete.
I'm a beginning self-pub American author who writes historical romance. I have a novella (1893 Cambridge) with an Armenian secondary character and I want to make sure I'm writing him positively and authentically. Would anyone be interested in reading a few scenes and giving me honest feedback for how he appears? I can offer (a little) compensation.
I have tried to find a way to order this.. but without any luck. I tried to find an epub version and google led me to a sight called z-lib. Does anyone have an idea if this is a safe sight?
Hi I got a text messaged in Armenian that reads
Ko saha incha seranov?
What does that mean in English? Thank you
I wasn't sure which flair to add, because I am interested in all eras. I'm old, so I like old-fashioned books on paper. I already have the Zohrab Bible, a Bible in modern Armenian, The Key of Truth by Frederick Cornwallis Conybeare and Z Arzoumanian's translation of Lewond's history with introduction in English and Armenian.

So, I am student from Serbia, and few years ago we were reading this story in class and I cannot remember the name of it, writer or anything. Please help! <3
Love from Serbia!
Hi ! A few things I'm particularly interested in, regarding the word "jan" is:
Given the geographical location of the kingdom of Armenia in ancient and pre-meadival times, would there be any possibility of Armenians knowing about the Trojan War from centuries earlier?
Do any Armenian writings of folktales ever mention or discuss this series of legendary events?
Barev. I was just wondering if there are any writers in this group, both in English and Armenian.
Looking forward to hearing about your work.
Several years ago I translated and published the memoirs of someone who had survived the Hamidian Massacres. The story was passed down in my family and mistakenly attributed to my grandmother. The original document was really hard to read. Actually, most Armenians couldn’t even figure out what it was. I taught myself Armenian and then studied the author’s handwriting to be able to translate it. It's a good read, 155 pages. Perfect book if you are busy but still want to read something interesting on the side. It really goes into great detail into what it was like back then.
All proceeds will go towards me repatriating to Armenia. Thanks!
Apart from Կապարե մարդկանց գաղտնիքը by Karen Simonyan, do you know of any other Armenian Sci-Fi books and authors?
My name is Tatiana Loussararian and I am the author of Adventures of Long-Necked Gabby. Ever since I can remember I have wanted to become and author so I decided to follow my dreams and make them happen. This book can teach your children to be kind, follow their dreams and be honest. If you would like a signed copy send me a message on Instagram @adventures_ofgabby or you can also purchase one through Amazon.
Are there any books in Armenian about self care? Something that is written by an Armenian from Armenia.
I am only aware of the many friendships between Armenian brains of two sides of the nation, but assuming that, there must have been some quarrels regarding styles and/or adopting Russian or Western European customs and vocabulary.
