Don’t forget to visit my Dissonance Trilogy blog and sign up there for news on the release of the second installment in my YA dystopian post-apocalyptic sci-fi trilogy!

Hello to my family, friends and readers…THANK YOU for sharing in this journey with me! I am deeply grateful for your support.

UPDATE ONE > Just a little note to tell you that Dissonance Volume 2: Reckoning is almost here! I finished writing it last week, and sent it off to a pro editor yesterday. It clocks in at 306 pages; a little less than Volume II. But I am tremendously excited for this one as it is far more intense and compelling than Volume I, building off of the calamities that took place there, and setting the stage for the ultimate showdown in Volume III. There is SO much weight to Volume II, I barely made it through it. It’s enormously moving and motivating, I mean it. I never knew the story would grow this big, but it’s enormous and powerful!

UPDATE TWO > If you haven’t yet snagged your copy of Volume I in paperback or hardcover, now is the time! They’re available through Amazon, Audiobook and Kindle, or direct through me, autographed, through Venmo, Paypal or Square. Visit the shop link to purchase. And thank you so much!

UPDATE THREE > Also, I need your help! I am undecided on the cover for Volume II, and need your thoughts and input. Please let me know what you think is best, given what you know of the story so far, the gorgon monster, and the title of Volume II. Please indicate in the comments below if you prefer 1, 2, or 3. Thanks so much for your help!

And UPDATE FOUR > Don’t forget about the upcoming book signings for Federal Way this Saturday March 2nd, Shoreline on Saturday March 16th, and Olympia on Saturday March 30th with FREE pizza! Be sure to RSVP at those links for which one(s) you can make.

Thanks again for reading, and for your support!

Hello friends and family, and happy Wednesday!

And don’t forget – if you haven’t seen the Evites yet and are in or around the Seattle area, I’m holding not one but TWO book signing release parties:

• Saturday March 2nd at 2pm at The Rock Wood-Fired Pizza in Federal Way for the southerners
• Saturday March 16th at 2pm at Spiro’s Pizza and Pasta in Shoreline for the northerners!

>>> Click either of those above links to RSVP. <<< See you there for FREE pizza! Bring your book (or I’ll have some you can snag, along with a free bookmark), and I’ll answer any non-spoiler questions you have!

Thanks again SO MUCH for your support – it means the world to me. I’m currently 188 pages into Volume II, and the storyline is growing more and more intense and captivating. I can’t wait to share it with you!

Have a great day.

Love,

AR

Hello to my friends and family!

Thank you for reading my blog, and welcome to my new site for my new novel series, “Dissonance.”

Many of you know that I made an attempt to return to music in 2023 that ultimately failed. But there burns within me a fire to create, and all my life I’ve put together products and commemorative keepsakes that leave a legacy. That’s what I’ve always wanted to do: create something memorable. Last year it was with music.

This year it’s with authoring. I’ve penned five books on multimedia production/business, as well as a biography many years ago, AND in the early nineties, I wrote nearly an entire fictional novel…which I subsequently deleted. It didn’t represent where I was going in my life at the time, nor where I wanted to go, so I killed it off.

But that fire never died. It was reborn in October as I set to work on a novel trilogy entitled “Dissonance.” In just three weeks I had penned the first volume in that fictional series, Volume I: Reality. I am currently 53 pages into Volume II: Reckoning. This is a story that has inspired me, terrified me, motivated me, encouraged me, and pushed my creative desire forward. It represents elements from literature and cinema that have inspired me, terrified me, motivated me, and encouraged me. It is sci-fi/dystopian/post-apocalyptic in nature, and is a non-stop thrill ride with intrigue, terror, questioning, learning, and decisions.

I LOVE BEING AN AUTHOR! And I love being a published one! If you like fiction – and even if you don’t – would you consider supporting me please? I’m a tremendously happy and grateful guy, but even more so when I create. And I’m loving this new chapter in my life.

You can grab a copy of the first volume of my books from the Shop page by clicking here. There are several options to choose from: signed paperback and hardcover editions, or purchases through Amazon or on Kindle. I’m also 3 chapters into recording the audiobook for my first novel.

Thank you so much for your support! I deeply appreciate it! Each novel sold supports my family, and so please believe me when I say that I’m immeasurably grateful.

Sincerely,

Aaron Ryan, author

Dissonance Volume I will be published immediately after the new year! I’m tremendously excited. 319 pages of gripping tension, adventure, horror, and discovery.
