Meet Oscar Jason Atkinson

Oscar Jason Atkinson is a Marine veteran with two decades of dedicated service, carrying with him the discipline, grit, and perspective forged in the field. Born and raised in Lorain, Ohio, he grew up surrounded by the city’s rhythms, which would later inspire the world of Luther “Lucky” Anderson in his novel, My Name Is Lucky.

For years, the idea of Lucky lived quietly in his mind, a character who refused to fade. Eventually, the creative noise grew too loud to ignore. My Name is Lucky is the result: a story shaped by experience, sharpened by imagination, and driven by the unmistakable voice that Atkinson could no longer keep silenced.
