Rubtsov began to work in the literary society The Narva Gate , where he met the young Leningrad poets GJ Gorbowski and KK Kuzminsky .

In 1969 he left the Literature Institute and became an employee of the Vologda Komsomolets newspaper .

Rubtsov died in his apartment as a result of a relationship dispute with the poet Lyudmila Derbina (* 1938; at the time Granovskaya, after her first husband), whom he wanted to marry.
