Прорыв с последующим завалом
Я тут на днях в блоге озвучил маленькую просьбу - сделать перепост английской статьи о проекте. Спасибо всем, кто откликнулся. Возможно, благодаря этому через день со мной связались журналисты с Yahoo и вчера ссылка на интервью попала на глaвную страницу Yahoo!Shine. В результате меня завалило письмами из США и других стран. Пришлось застрять на день в Эдессе, чтобы попытаться разргести завал:
"Hi Sergey, I live in San Francisco Area. You should come visit, you could stay at my family's place for a couple of days. You will get a shower, food, and I could drive you to where you need to go next."
"Come to Houston. You can stay at our place for a few days. I am from Surtiname and my wife is from the Czech Republic. We have a 3 year old son who was born here."
"I work for a large Television Production Company in the United States. I have been tracking your success and think you have a story that the whole world should hear. I would like to set a Skype meeting with you and our company so maybe we can pay for you to travel the USA and we can film your art and your journey through America and put it on television for the world to see. This is a great opportunity for you so please take it seriously and get back to me as soon as you can. The world is waiting."
"Sergey, I can offer an airline ticket from/to any US city that Southwest airlines flies to/from (about a hundred cities). Thank you, Charles"
"Hello Sergey. If you can come to United States I live near Atlanta, in the south east part of the US. I hav elived and traveled to many countries in my life. Most recently visiting Thailand, Sri Lanka and work in Iraq and Afghanistan. I came home last April I hurt my back. While in Afghanistan I met some Russian helicopter pilots. They said the Russian Army gave them Mi-8 HiP helicopters for use as cargo transport. I also worked with Polish Army while in Afghanistan and am friends with some of them, I hope to visit Poland to see them.
Take care, let me know how I can help."
"Hey man, I heard your traveling around, checking places out and seeing whats out there. Well my friend, i'd like to invite you to the beautiful city of Milwaukee Wisconsin. Beer is plentiful (as it IS Wisconsin), the sun is nice, Gangster ass places abound and people are relatively cool. Ever played the sport of disc golf? well, no matter, ill take you on a bad ass discin' trip. To tell ya the truth it doesn't really matter if you choose to draw a portrait or not, you seem like a cool guy and you're idea is bomb as hell son. So if you ever find yourself slightly bored, wherever you are and looking to find a friendly place to kick it, chill out, drink some beer and relax with friends then look no further yo."
"I am a writer working as a real estate agent in Phoenix, Arizona in the U.S. I was enticed by the Yahoo article that covered your story and thought the portraits looked great. I would love to have one and be able to say I have a Balovin original. I don't smile a lot, and often I'm told I look serious or contemplative. People ask me "what's wrong?" a lot, I'm not depressed or anything apparently I just look sullen apparently. I have a long slender face dark eyes and dark hair, and high cheekbones. Cheers"
"We'll provide airline tickets! And a free place to stay just outside Houston, Texas..."
"I've offered up my home, meals, and transportation while he's in town as well. I live in midtown. Now, if we can get someone to arrange a visa."
И так делее и так далее. Еще не все прочесть успел. Так что Aмерика не за горами!
