ⓘ About Luke Dumas

Luke Dumas is a horror fiction novelist who was born and raised in San Diego, California. Similar to many middle and lower-class white men, privilege has always been a thorny issue for Luke Dumas. Luke Dumas’ experiences from his time in college lingered and colored how he viewed himself and made it harder for him to see himself as he ought to. It never occurred to him how much privilege he had to be born to a single mother who was a grant writer earning $42,000 a year. The first ever novel that Luke Dumas ever penned was a tragic memoir of unrequired gay love which he wrote while he was 17.
