About Steve Brewer

Steve Brewer is a journalist, a teacher, and an author. He writes mystery and crime fiction. His books feature a lot of humor. But Brewer has admitted that his laziness determines his choice of settings. The author doesn’t do much traveling and he likes it that way. And because he knows so much about Albuquerque and Northern California, writing stories set in those locations is simply easier. He has no interest in doing the research that it would take to set his novels in other towns, states, and regions. Steve Brewer graduated from the University of Arkansas-Little Rock. He spent a little over two decades working as a journalist. And he was still plying his skills in the field when he finally sat down to produce fiction at the age of thirty. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of Bubba Mabry Books series, Steve Brewer has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
