I have begun writing at an early age. My first play was staged in 1974 in the Baku Puppet Theater (Azerbaidzhan).
Later, in 1988 I had organized a professional theater in Saint-Petersburg (Russia), where I had directed a number of my plays. Simultaneously, I wrote short stories and screen plays.
In 1990 I moved to New York City, where circumstances temporarily prevented me from writing. Only in 2001 I was able to materialized one of my ideas in the form of novel. Novel "
The Building" was published in April of 2003 in Russia by "Limbus Press" of St. Petersburg (hardcover).
My second novel, under the title of "
The Wedding" was finished in 2002 and was published in April of 2004 by "Amphora" Publishers, St. Petersburg, Russia (hardcover).
My third novel "
A Doorway For The Butterfly" was published in August of 2007 by "Fluid" Publishing House, Moscow, Russia (hardcover).
Last year I've finished my fourth novel and currently I am working on a fifth novel.
By this time I have written over sixty
short stories for the New York magazines Metro and
VSE, a number of essays, commercial articles and twenty one scripts for a popular radio sitcom on the New York radio station, VSE (87.7 FM).
Since July of 2007 I am working as an Editor-in-chief of the Russian magazine
"Metro".
