About

Thanks for stopping by!

My name is Brian L. Tucker, and I’m an author who has a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from the Bluegrass Writers Studio at Eastern Kentucky University. When not writing, I work as an academic advisor in the South Carolina Lowcountry.

 

I am the author of the recent middle grade book:

• To the Buzzer, published by Wipf and Stock / Resource Publications (2020),

as well as the children’s book:

• The Scary, Gray Shark  (winner of the 2019 Story Monsters Approved – School Life award).

 

I have also written several books in the Young Adult genre:

• Pokeweed: An Illustrated Historical Novella (Kindle Bestseller and 2018 American Book Awards Best Novella finalist)
• Swimming the Echo (Kindle Bestseller)
• Wheelman (Kindle Bestseller)

 

Beyond that, I’ve published one collection of short stories:

• Baptisms & Dogs: Stories

 

And one poetry chapbook:

• Beach Poems

 

My interests include oceans, lakes, rivers, reading Thomas Merton, finding amazing new restaurants, and watching my wife and daughter play.

If I can help you with writing or publishing, contact me on Instagram at: bltuck2, or, message me on the contact page.

 

Thank you,

Brian
