edit data

Ric Perrott has spent his life telling stories—first as excuses to his mother, then in lines of code, and now with words on the page. A lifelong gamer, musician, and voracious reader, he finally decided it was time to let the dice roll and share the tales that have been questing through his imagination for decades. He is the author of the short story Pick Up the Pieces, and The Family is his debut novel from Mirelune Press.

When he’s not writing, Ric can be found strumming a guitar, holding a controller, or losing track of time in a fantastic book. He lives in Florida with his family, a Goldendoodle named Milo, and more unfinished ideas than he’ll ever honestly admit to.

Looking Behind, Looking Ahead

2025 started with a stack of manuscripts and more hope than certainty. I'm ending it with a published short story and my debut novel landing in stores with a better reception than I ever dared expect.

Thank you to everyone who's supported my work, stuck around for the chaos, or just wanted to see what goofy thing I'd do next. You mean more to me than I know how to say.
