Biography
Having experimented with writing from early childhood, he majored in writing at Edith Cowan University. Often his writing explores the state of the human mind, and interpersonal relationships.

Tuckerisation
Luke often includes references to friends and family within his works. Indeed, Freeman is his mother's maiden name, Gardiner is his maternal grandfather's name and Jacobs is his paternal grandmother's maiden name – he avoids using "Heath" so as not to seem self-indulgent. Other examples can be seen in the the nurse in Hear No Evil, who was named after a close friend.
