Finn Briscoe

You could do worse

A tech entrepreneur who didn’t make it big but did make it bust, Finn Briscoe writes novels and short stories, some absurdist and some pretty serious. Growing up on a farm in Missouri, he learned hard work early on but never once sang “Oh What a Beautiful Morning” while skipping through fields of grain. Going off to college back East during the Vietnam War, he became an insignificant drug smuggler to help finance an education in Latin American literature and a wandering lifestyle. When his wife gave him the first of three wonderful gifts (their children), he got serious and studied engineering, eventually starting his own telecom company. It died, but he didn’t. Today he lives in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, and writes full time.
