Meet The Author: Ryan Coleman

Ryan Coleman has always loved telling stories, especially the ones that begin with an outlandish idea. He’s drawn to the challenge of making the improbable feel convincing and developing dark, unsettling fiction across multiple genres. He founded LNGSTRY Short Studios to pursue a longstanding ambition to share his stories with readers. His forthcoming novel, The Last Gift, is a dystopian speculative thriller.
