Armand Inezian

Armand Inezian grew up in Hollywood, in a multilingual household, so maybe it was only natural that he would become fascinated with storytelling and with the interplay of language. In his teens and college years, he began exploring writing locally, attending screenplay workshops and writing articles for the lively pre-internet California 'zine scene.

In the 90's, Armand moved to Boston to attend the MFA writing program at Emerson College, where he wrote stories inspired by his family's history of immigration. His stories have appeared in prominent literary journals like the Missouri Review and Western Humanities Review, and they have received numerous accolades including a Pushcart Prize nomination, and the Glimmer Train Fiction Open Prize.

His short story collection, Bringing Ararat, was a finalist for the OSU Prize in Fiction and the Black Lawrence Fiction Prize. It was featured in the noted blog, A Year of Reading the World, by author Ann Morgan. VampCon, his first novel, is a supernatural thriller published by UK-based Grayhart Press.

Armand's latest novel, The Ghost Code, is a Cold-War era story of suspense set in Soviet Russia, about a secret radio code, a broken family, and a father who will do anything to set things right.

Armand resides in Boston with his wife, two amazing children, two cats, and many books. You can find out more about him at his website: Inezian.com
