I discovered my love of writing only after dislocating my shoulder rock climbing. Clearly in need of a new hobby, I started writing fiction and have been in love ever since. I came to the U.S. when I was two years old (with the help of my parents), grew up in Minnesota, and attended the University of Wisconsin, where I majored in computer science and psychology. I currently live in the Twin Cities and (still) enjoy rock climbing, running, and raising chickens.

More of Igor's books…
Alexandre Dumas
“What would you not have accomplished if you had been free?"

"Possibly nothing at all; the overflow of my brain would probably, in a state of freedom, have evaporated in a thousand follies; misfortune is needed to bring to light the treasures of the human intellect. Compression is needed to explode gunpowder. Captivity has brought my mental faculties to a focus; and you are well aware that from the collision of clouds electricity is produced — from electricity, lightning, from lightning, illumination.”
Alexandre Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo

Leo Tolstoy
“All great literature is one of two stories; a man goes on a journey or a stranger comes to town.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Everything you read in the newspapers is absolutely true except for the rare story of which you happen to have firsthand knowledge.”
Erwin Knoll

Upton Sinclair
“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.”
Upton Sinclair, I, Candidate for Governor: And How I Got Licked

Gerda Weissmann Klein
“Ilse, a childhood friend of mine, once found a raspberry in the concentration camp and carried it in her pocket all day to present to me that night on a leaf. Imagine a world in which your entire possession is one raspberry and you give it to your friend.”
Gerda Weissmann Klein, All But My Life
