After almost five decades of teaching and leading in the college environment, Barbara G. Tucker looks forward to retirement in the near future. This will allow her to pursue her second love behind teaching--writing and helping other writers. She has published ten novels, two with Colorful Crow: Sudden Future (2023), and Lying In (2024).

Her novels explore family relationships, community, and the role of faith and conviction in life choices. She has also published three textbooks in Communication, Bible studies, and academic works.

She currently lives in Dalton with Nala and Butter, her rescue dogs. Barbara attends Brainerd Baptist Church and belongs to the Ft. Oglethorpe Northwest Georgia Writers Group, Georgia Writers, and the Chattanooga Writers Guild. She is married and has a son, daughter-in-law, and beautiful granddaughter in Ringgold.
