After years of procrastination and despite working full-time his passion for rich space opera and high fantasy storytelling led him to finally put pen to paper on his debut novel. The resultant book, PULSE: The Trial, is the first in a series of books centered around an all-female galactic society.

Having never quite grown out of Star Wars novels, Star trek episodes, Green Lantern comic books and Final Fantasy video games Ryan currently rested in Surrey - UK where, along with his wif ...more

‘What Can We Be?’ Q&A with Kayla Coombs and Ryan Crawford

A while back, Kayla and I answered some questions from our friends about how our debut novel, ‘What Can We Be?’ came to life. Things have been a little crazy since then, but as a big ol’ thank you to everyone who read and enjoyed our book, here are some of our answers!

I’m sure you have a lot of ideas for books, what made you commit to this one?

R.A.’s Quotes

“Your speech is pompous sounding, full of pride, as fits the lackey of the Gods. You are young and young your rule and you think the tower in which you live is free from sorrow: from it have I not seen two tyrants thrown? The third, who now is king, I shall yet live to see him fall, of all three most suddenly, most dishonored. Do you think I will crouch before your Gods, -so new-and tremble? I am far from that.”
― Aeschylus, Prometheus Bound
