David R. Lincoln (a.k.a. Dlinc) is a novelist, poet and coder based in New York City.
His novel Mobility Lounge chronicles the rise of the internet in the late 1990s through an entrepreneur who gets emotionally entangled with a visitor from abroad.
His poetry is collected in the chapbooks The Interloper and By The Way, covering his experiences as a traveler and expat.
Other poems, short fiction and essays have appeared in anthologies and literary journals in the US and abroad, and on the locative web app Geodes.io.
Lincoln pursued a career as a creative technologist for clients in media, arts and international development, including work with The New Republic, StoryCorps, and United Nations. On 9-11, while a consultant in the newsroom at The New York Times, he recorded events first-hand in Twenty-First Century Prelude , the top-ranked poem on search engines at the time about that day in New York.
Lincoln holds an MA from San Francisco State University, and a BA (Creative Writing and Computer Science) from University of Colorado Boulder. He has worked as a writer, editor, producer and creative technologist, and is the principal behind Scripter.Net. Previously, Lincoln worked as a roustabout in the North Sea, and taught computers in Nepal.
These days he lives in Queens (NY) with his human family and a cat.
