edit data

Chad Ryan is the author of Ghost River, a contemporary dark fantasy/horror novel readers have called "wildly original, warped, and creepy as hell" and compared to a mashup of Clive Barker and Stephen King. He writes horror, dark fantasy, and Southwestern Gothic — stories built on grief, mythic weight, and characters who survive things no one should.

He's also the creator of Writing Is War, a literary and raw dark-fiction Substack and YouTube channel, where he writes about the craft and cost of making dark fiction.

He is currently at work on his next novel. Find him at chadryan.co. ...more
