Ryan Speck is a writer, which you may have guessed. He currently resides in the Seattle area (where he hides in the suburbs with plentiful parking and easily-located stores and restaurants), but he hails from Atlanta, a place he was only too happy to get away from. Not a particularly driven writer, Ryan has only churned out a small amount of material over the past decade, in large part due to a reduction of working in boring jobs where he could spend hours writing to assuage the dullness while still getting paid. What he has written varies from the strange to the absurd to the humorous, though your level of enjoyability may vary. Please feel free to sample some of these fine free stories and then maybe consider paying for a lovely copy of The Big Rusty Lie, soon to be a major motion picture in the imagination of an autistic child.
