Stories have a funny way of skipping the mind and connecting straight to the reader’s heart. I’m Ryan Espie, and my goal is to write the stories I want to read. Having grown up in Jacksonville, Florida, I have discovered a wild imagination bursting to the seams with ideas. A knight battling a massive dragon, two thieves lurking through a dungeon searching for a priceless gem, a family stranded on an uncharted island with pirates, a temple holding a legendary relic guarded by a tribe of warriors, etc. Ideas of this sort have tumbled through my mind for years. Now, I want to bring the laughter and tears, the love and joy, the humor and the heart to you.
