Caroline Huckeba is a writer and master's student based in Dallas, Texas. Her work explores the intersections of body, memory, and identity, with particular attention to womanhood, performance, mental health, and the complexities of self-perception. Drawing on her background in psychology, she is interested in the ways individuals come to understand themselves through reflection, relationship, and cultural expectation, and her writing often examines the tensions between vulnerability and control.

She holds a B.S. in Psychology with a minor in Creative Writing from the University of Texas at Dallas, where she studied narrative, mental health, and the spaces where psychology and storytelling overlap. Her creative work has appeared in Blood+Honey, Minetta Review, Eunoia Review, Tap Into Poetry, Spirit Lake Review, and Rappahannock Review. She was featured in the June/July 2026 issue of Indie Pathways Magazine and was nominated for Best Written Screenplay at the Art Is Alive Film Festival (2025) for her screenplay Can A Parent Give You Their Sad Face?

Huckeba writes across genres, including creative nonfiction, fiction, poetry, and screenwriting, and is drawn to work that blends the lyrical with the narrative and the surreal with the grounded. She has also spoken publicly about her writing in panel settings.

In addition to her own creative work, Huckeba serves as a prose reader for Iron Oak Editions and previously for West Trade Review, where she supports the publication of emerging voices. She is also a Summer 2026 Mentee in the Girls Write Now Collaboratory program, where she continues to develop her craft within a community of writers, mentors, and publishing professionals.
