Brice Austin

Hi there, nice to meet you! Here are a few things about me:

I was born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee, back when it had more of a

small-town feel. For a while I was incarcerated at (er, I mean I was a student

at) Hillwood High, home of the Hilltoppers (whatever those are).

My father was a professor of Spanish & Portuguese at Vanderbilt University, and

was awarded a couple of research grants which allowed us to live in Brazil on

two separate occasions, once in Rio de Janeiro, once in Recife.

Later, I graduated from Vanderbilt with a double major in English Lit and

Portuguese (yes, I had to take a class or two from my dad, which was awkward,

but I would gladly do that again if I could see him now).

Later still, I attended the graduate program in Creative Writing at the University of Colorado,

Boulder, continuing the trend of receiving degrees from institutions with

unusual mascots (Commodores and Buffaloes). I kept that going by earning an

M.L.I.S. at Denver University, home of the Pioneers.

These days, I live in Broomfield, Colorado with my wife, two of my kids, and Rory,

an outstanding Holland Lop rabbit.

If you have the time and interest, I hope you’ll visit my website,

where you’ll find more information about my book,

a couple of downloadable stories, and other items of possible interest.

Have a great day!
