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

It doesn't matter whether they make any sense or not at first, or even if anybody would want to read them. It only matters that you start the process of constant improvement. Plus the more you write the more ideas you have. A truly virtuous cycle!(less)

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

SIA Showcase for ...: R.A. Crawford - Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Making Stuff Blow Up 2 10 May 09, 2017 03:34PM  
Aeschylus
“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
