Finn here. I write short stories and novels. Here’s what I usually say in a bio: A tech entrepreneur with a passion for Latin American fiction, who didn't make it big but did make it bust, I grew up on a farm but never sang "Oh What a Beautiful Morning" while skipping through fields of waving grain. A budding entrepreneur, I risked life and limb to become an insignificant drug smuggler at the age of eighteen to help finance an education in Latin American literature, but had to get serious when my wife gave me three wonderful gifts (our children). Scared of starving kids, I began studying engineering and eventually started my own telecom company. It died, but I didn’t. That’s pretty stuffy, so let me make it quick: Shit happens! My first novel is God Is A Mortician, which I call punk sci-fi, and it debuts on amazon on June 1. Then there’s a memoir series called Fun with Finn which is creative nonfiction (fancy name for memoir with a twist), the first of which came out May 1: “Rookie Reefer Bandidos." If you care, my academic background includes a B.A. and an M.A. in Latin American Studies from Amherst College and UT-Austin, respectively, and an M.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Kansas, leading me to become a multilingual techie in my professional life before embarking on my career as an author. My short stories have been published in Calliope Literary Journal, Jokes Review, cc&d, and nagarimagazine.com, the latter in Spanish. My irreverent outlook and profane wit sometimes cause members of my own family to act like they don’t know me, but that probably happens to you, too, when you tell a bad joke or cut a fart in a crowded restaurant. Not to leave you with a bad taste in your mouth, or smell in your olfactory processing system (where else does a smell reside?)
