I have written a story about Lilya Litvyak, the highest scoring female fighter ace of all time.
It's weird, but the longer I spent on the story, the more I feel I knew them. My two main characters were Lydia Litvyak the White Rose of Stalingrad, and her wingman (wingwoman?) Katya Budanova. Both went on to be double Aces before they were killed at the Battle of Kursk.
It was a challenge writing a story where both the characters die in the end, but it ended up being quite cathartic and really captured the feel of Russia in the second World War- most everybody died. I really enjoyed brining the story to life and feel that this work may be one of the finest things I ever produce in my lifetime. I do so hope you will enjoy it and Take a look at my kickstarter .
Thanks,
Preston
