Paul G Buckner

Paul G Buckner is a Citizen of the Cherokee Nation, author, musician, native Oklahoman, and avid outdoorsman. The oral tradition of his Cherokee family drove him to collect folktales and stories of those he met in his travels across the U.S. Many of the stories have been passed down through several generations. It is these stories that inspire his writing. Paul grew up in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains and, as a young boy, spent many summers in the woods or on the lakes, creeks, and rivers hunting, fishing, and camping. Those experiences led to a deep respect for the outdoors, traditional ways, and the natural environment. You will see this respect reflected in his writing.

Paul is an award-winning Amazon top-selling author of the action/adventure series Hawthorn Lake and its associated short story, The Lost Gold Mine of Idaho Springs. He’s also written Leonard P Valentine, a young adult murder/mystery set in New York City. You will find all his books on Amazon, in local bookshops, at author signings, and at festivals.
