Thomas M. Atkinson

Author & Playwright

COMING SOON

TIKI MAN / 2021
​Thomas Atkinson's second novel, Tiki Man, will be published by Regal House Publishing in the fall of 2021. The following is a quote from the publisher's author profile.

"...the judge was kind enough to write that the main character, 'Is tough, wise, and kind, her heartaches and triumphs so honestly rendered that for the length of this piece I believed she was real, out there somewhere, whispering her story to me.' In Tiki Man, I hope Pere and Tammy conjure this strange alchemy for you, even after the pages run out."
The best author you've never read”
- Catherine Ryan Hyde 
New York Times bestselling author
