Lucas Ryker does not just write words. He paints them in a rainbow.

His writing, including his debut novel With His Words I’m Not Alone, centers around character-driven LGBTQ+ literary and contemporary fiction stories. He explores themes such as friendship, loneliness, social anxiety, the pursuit of love, and the impact of technology on human connections.

Lucas, a keen advocate of compassion, equality, tolerance and acceptance, takes inspiration from books, animals, nature, sunsets, and extreme sports like skateboarding. He loves to write to a background of 80s music.

Please MESSAGE him and connect with him via his newsletter and Instagram, and follow him here on Goodreads, Amazon, and Threads.
