Born in the 1980s in Boulder, Colorado R.L. Culkin grew up with his little brother and single-parent mother until the early 1990s when his mother would marry his step-father and he would gain step-siblings and a new baby brother. Lucky enough to go to such a great school district was a blessing although he did not realize it at the time. In the late 1990s just before being excepted to a school for the gifted R.L. Culkin was in a car accident in which he obtained a head injury. He would soon struggle with his mental health and have a long battle with himself and the system before coming to terms with his injury and illness and excepting it for what is and going from there. R.L. Culkin always had a goal in life to create comic books but not able to draw how he wanted he decided to go to school and learn all he could about telling stories sequentially. He obtained an Associate's Degree in Animation and a Certificate in Videography but still was not satisfied with his artistic ability to draw. While on hiatus from learning to draw his very best he decided to write short stories that were for fun at first and then became a calling. Soon he would publish his first book Tales of R.L. Culkin Vol. 1 with more books waiting to be published in the series. At present time R.L. Culkin is in pursuit of his Bachelor's Degree in Illustration with a concentration in sequential art so that he can turn his short stories into comics and graphic novels. Some of R.L. Culkin's hobbies are BBQing, Camping, Charcutier, Kung Fu, and otherworldly studies among other things. My goal is to take readers away from their day-to-day if only for a moment and hopefully, they will enjoy the stories of R.L. Culkin as he does.
