So far, I have published four Bible translations for the Kindle with my Direct Verse Jump navigation method: three English translations and one Chinese. Each one is a high quality edition (well, I can't guarantee the quality of the Chinese text because I cannot read it but the formatting and navigation are excellent).

Currently, I am working on the Douay Rheims Bible, which is an English translation of the Latin Vulgate. Unfortunately, the available text sources for D-R all contain innumerable typos and OCR errors (this is also true for all Douay Rheims editions currently available in the Kindle Store). I am proofreading the sources that I have (so far I've done about 1/3 of the OT) and will release it when it is ready.

I have contacted copyright holders/ publishers for some popular modern translations to see if they would be willing to cooperate with me in bringing the Direct Verse Jump navigation to their translations. I'll let you know if I hear from them.

I also plan to publish other non-English translations (Russian, Ukrainian, French, etc.) I am also working on Bible dictionaries and encyclopedias.

If you want to see my publications all in one place, read additional information about DVJ and follow the developments, please visit my newly created website OSNOVA Press

I have also gathered there all the comments and feedback that I receive from people on various forums.
