Mike Trigg is a veteran silicon valley executive turned novelist, blogger and guest columnist. Listen to JJRR 114 as Mike describes how the covid shutdown propelled him into writing, leveraging his tech career to explore the impact of technology on society. Finding parallels between startup culture and creative writing, Mike notes he was well equipped for reinvention and even considers the USA a reinvention nation (well said Mike). BURNER, his latest release, explores the challenges of trust and truth itself in today’s politically polarized, technology-based culture.
