Contributor Bio(s): 4. Paws Games and Publishing: - 4 Paws Games and Publishing is a family-run company. We publish books, music, videos, photography and visual novel games. The owner has been publishing since 2012 but did not officially launch a business until 2015. The company offers two forms of book/e-book publishing. These are sent out to different printing and distribution companies. Each has their own unique benefits. The owner wants to help people who can't afford the higher costs of publishing. To do this, we've minimized our costs by doing much of the work for less, finding lower cost printing companies, working online only rather than through a building, hiring freelancers and no staff. We specialize in publishing and offer a variety of help from beginning to end (as in, when you end your contract). You do need to sign a contract, but you can give us a month's notice to pull out of it at any time. You retain the rights and have the majority of say from beginning to end. Royalties are at least equal to any other company out there. 4 Paws Games and Publishing is located outside of Humboldt, Saskatchewan, Canada. We have clients from the Philippines, South Africa, U.S.A and Canada, and we would love the opportunity to help you!Drogaitseva, Anastasia: - Anastasia Drogaitseva grew up in a small town near Moscow, Russia. She has always loved animals, collecting pictures and small calendars of different kinds of animals. Her favorites are dolphins and red pandas. She started to draw at an early age and taught herself. Growing up, she had a series of drawings of a sad panda family and a family of crocodiles, that her grandmother still keeps somewhere. At 10 years of age, her mom bought her a kitten, a three-colored kitten named Ponka. She loved her very much and cared for her until Ponka passed away when Anastasia was 18. She is still greatly missed. Anastasia graduated from school in 2008 and finished her final year at the Moscow State Linguistic University in 2013. She now works as a freelance artist and illustrator and still tutors 2 students. She is planning to get a second, higher education in Arts, as she has always dreamed of becoming a cartoonist and creating her own movies. Anastasia now has less time to draw due to her full-time job and has moved on to some bigger projects. We wish you all the best!Caswell, Vickianne: - Vickianne Caswell is married and has one daughter, who has an amazing gift with animals (all animals, wild or tame seem to love her). Vickianne was raised an animal lover, in the cities of Saskatoon and Regina. She has been writing at home since she was a teenager, after her father got her interested in writing when he published a poem. She has done a few articles for a small paper on animal care and continues to experience the joys of pet ownership on an acreage where the family lives at present. Vickianne began writing again in 2012 after the quiet life and animals on an acreage inspired her and is now a proud member of the Saskatchewan Writers' Guild (through the business only at present). She wanted to create a set of children's stories in memory of her rabbit Freckles and the desire to teach morals that are sometimes forgotten. She published her first book in the series entitled, "Freckles the Bunny Series" in 2012. Since that time, she has published 4 more books in the series and a companion book that shares information about the real animals from the stories. Vickianne is currently on her second series as well. "Sherlock the Remarkable Cat Series," was published in January of 2014. She has won a Readers Favourite 5 Star Review Award for most of her stories. Vickianne's children's books are based on her real pets with the same unique personalities. Many were unwanted, strays or rescues and each special in their own way. Every book in each series comes with "Fun Facts" and a "Behind the Story" at the back of every book. She is always more than happy to visit a school with Freckles III and put on a presentation/story hour for children. |
