So I wanted to write a book (in Russian) about Columbine, because I think what we have now is not very good (Cullen, Larkin) or too subjective (Sue, Brooks). I have great respect for Sue Klebold and her book, but I think she was very biased in her opinions, which is completely understandable. Besides it’s about her journey as a mother, not a Columbine book. I thought “Well, Tim Krabbe did a great job and he is German, so I can do it too” (I am from Russia). I wrote down a plan and some ideas, but then realized I was basically repeating what was discussed on this forum. I have original ideas about some things, but 70% was already been here. It’s not obvious to general public, but it’s obvious to me as the member of this forum. So I don’t feel like stealing ideas from people, but I really want a book about Columbine or just about Eric Harris. I am not a “fan” or anything, I just want to tell this story without making him an evil psychopath. Who are interested in this? I can sponsor this book (or most of it at least).

Шансы что эту книгу допустят на прилаки где-то около 0, учитывая парад придурков пытающихся повторить "подвиг".

But you can find tons of information here, also I recommend to start your journey with 11k reading.

Спасибо за ответ! Да, 11k лучше любой книги) Даже если не допустят на прилавки, выпустить хотя бы ограниченный тираж для тех, кто заинтересован. Странно, что участники до сих пор не написали такую книгу,хотя вроде подобная тема уже обсуждалась. Запредельное внимание к Колумбайну в последнее время тоже мотивирует меня искать единомышленников. Сейчас все российские СМИ ссылаются на Каллена. Если тут есть люди, заинтересованные в написании книги, я им с радостью помогу - могу быть соавтором или просто быть спонсором - неважно, главное появится книга, в которой присутствует другая точка зрения.
If somebody interested in writing a book about Columbine, I will gladly help them to publish it. I can co-write it or just be a sponsor - doesn’t really matter, I just need a book with different point of view on Columbine. My biggest problem with other books (Cullen, Sue, Langman, Larkin, Brooks) is portrayal of Eric Harris. And I think majority of people on this forum can agree with me on this.

I think that is a good idea. Besides Sue, most of the books written about Columbine are a bit outdated.

I don't think you would be "stealing" things from the forum as long as you turned the ideas into your own thoughts.

I know the publication has already been 3 months, but I still want to comment! I would also like to make a book about Columbine, only that exclusively for Brazil (To show the Brazilian public the Shooting)! I had this idea when the school shooting occurred in Goiânia (As I said, I'm Brazilian) and after reading the inspiration of the shooter with Columbine, I felt a great desire to show "the truth" to the public, since, from what I see, the Most Brazilians have little information about the shooting! And since I really like the subject, it encourages me more! But sometimes I think, what Krabbé really managed to make a "definitive" book, besides Randy's book is coming (And it's going to be translated by Portuguese, like Sue's book). This two factors ends up taking my hopes off , in addition to being a minor! If Randy's book is not translated, I will make a book "with everything" (Opinions, Information and etc ...), but if so, I will not write anything on the subject!
I just made this text to show you how I also have this will, and also that I will support you as much as possible to write a book on the subject!
Hugs!!!
