(20.10) Slowly I’m trying to add my published problems on the site. Mostly for myself, I guess 🙂 . But anyway, the new problems added to My problems are: No.18, No.19, No.20, No.22. (I’m using the order of composing; if some numbers are not shown yet – it means, that a problem is not published yet and will be shown under this number later, after publication)
(16.10) The Thematic tourney Julia’sFairies-HSP-2012 is closed. See my post about participants of the tourney! Thanks again to all authors! And.. I’d appreciate your ideas for the next tourneys!! But for now – we’re waiting for the results!
(15.10) New issue of Fairings by Chris Feather – Fairings No.27 – Oct/2012 – is added to the Articles page!
(15.10) Dear Visitors and Commentators! Today I’ve installed several plugins to prevent spam comments (several hundreds per day) and registration of spam-users (I had about 900 of them!). Otherwise I had to delete them manually. But of course, I’m afraid that either your comments can be considered as spam in some cases, or new registrations. I apologize for all possible inconveniences and I’d be grateful if you write me in case of any problems with commenting on the site. You know, I appreciate your comments here a lot, as I believe all the authors do.

On the 10th of October JuliasFairies.com becomes 6 month old!
I’m so happy that it has become well-known for this half a year! I’m so thankful for your activity, for almost 150 original problems published here, for about 55 problems I already have for my first Thematic tourney, for your comments and for your mails! This all means a lot to me, and motivates a lot! Thank you, dear authors, commentators and readers!
Let me show you the wonderful gift I’ve got from the one who supports me and this site a lot, who shares his knowledge with all of us, who is simply the best in fairies, and who is the best teacher I ever had – 2 problems by GM Petko A. Petkov:
No.148 – dedicated to me;
No.149 – dedicated to the 6th month Jubilee of the site Julia’s Fairies!
Thank you, thank you, thank you, dear Petko! I’m afraid I can’t find more words – I’m very touched and happy!..
I wish the success to the site, and to all of you in your composing and in your life!
Your, Julia

Dear Friends,
I’d like to let you know that I’ll be on vacation with limited internet access for a week – 06-13th October. Going to my lovely Italy, with family, – so with all devices like smart mobile phone, computer and mobile Internet there, I doubt I will be able to work much being with kids on Adriatic sea! 🙂
But the site will be up and running and I’ll read mails few times per day for sure. I’m thinking about what might be needed from me… and this is what I’ve found to comment:
Your, Julia
