Biography

Bio I am a prolific writer of poetry. I am also what you would consider a professional student. I attend college full-time with a dual major in accounting & finance. My long term goal is to become a forensic accountant specializing in fraud. In my spare time I write poetry. My main subject is child sexual abuse which I write to share with those who suffer from this trauma. I also sometimes write about love and inspiration and, a small amount of my poetry is about the years I spent suffering from the effects of alcohol abuse. My first book of poetry is in the process of being published and will be available in June of 2013. I have written five volumes of poetry to date, two are presently in production. I suffer from a bi-polar disorder that went undiagnosed for most of my life and from PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) as a result of my nine years of child sexual abuse. I consider it my mission in life to share what I have been through with those who share my pain through the only way I know how, through my verse. I also have a passion for writing love poems. My first book of poetry is to be released by my publisher in May and my publisher just sent me a twenty four page contract of acceptance to publish a children’s book I have written due to be released at the end of the year. I live in Ansonia Connecticut USA with my wife of fifteen years along with my two teenage children, three cats, and one dog. Raymond Tucker

Inspiration

Having suffered for so many years from my nine years of abuse I finally found my voice through my writing. Silence is our enemy.
