Higgins, B. T.: - B.T. Higgins lives in the wild urban jungles of Alaska with his wife and four children. As you might expect, he is an avid fan of long naps and noise-canceling headphones. He has been a garbageman, a propane technician, a teacher, a tutor, a musician, and an exotic-bird-cage scrubber, but writing stories is, by far, his favorite job.
