Tyler Foran

Tyler Foran was born and raised in Tucson, AZ. He spent time in California and New Hampshire before settling down in Tennessee. He is the author of several novels and collections of poetry and was once an alright musician. He likes trying new whiskeys and bourbons and breakdance fighting random individuals for bags of roasted pecans. Pronounced "pee-kins."

Tyler gained interest in writing after reading "A Dirty Job" by Christopher Moore. He began work on Lawson City as a graphic novel but decided to go the novel route because he didn't want to have to draw everything out. His other favorite authors include Dennis Lehane, Chuck Hogan, and Ned Vizzini.
