There are not one but THREE updates in this August Blog (BLAUGUST? Anyway…) YOU READY? GET READY!

ONE: Hi everyone! Thanks for supporting me, and for all of you whom I’ve met recently at trade shows including LoveOly, Eatonville Lions Festival, The Kent Nerd Party, and so many more! I had a fantastic festival this past weekend in Eatonville and sold FIFTY books. Incredible! I’m very grateful. Thank you to all of you who purchased one. I’m immeasurably grateful.

Next up, this little-known retailer:

That’s right, and I’m ECSTATIC! B&N does carry my books already, but I got a slot in at the local outlet in Olympia this Saturday from 12-4pm at 1530 Black Lake Blvd SW, Olympia, WA 98502. If you’re in the neighborhood, I hope to see you there! Feel to bring your books and I’ll sign them and take pictures with you! Or, if you have done the unthinkable and have NOT purchased one of my books…

…then feel free to come and grab one THIS Saturday, August 10th from 12-4pm at Barnes & Noble.

TWO: Thank you – I mean it – THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart to all of you who have supported me with a purchase of one or all of my books. I’m SO grateful for how much Dissonance has taken off! The screenplay is DONE! It’s now being pitched to major streaming networks like HBO Max, Netflix, Paramount, Prime Video, Apple TV+, and I can’t wait! I promise to keep you in the loop, but for now, just know that my excitement is reaching a fever pitch!

THREE:

I’m writing another installment in the Dissonance series, entitled “Dissonance Volume Up: Rising.” Get it? GET IT?!?! It’s another prequel that follows Dissonance Volume Zero: Revelation and leads right into Dissonance Volume I: Reality.

You can get your copies of Dissonance signed by me with a pen and a bookmark at authoraaronryanstore.com. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart!

That’s it! Thank you so much for reading! ***Please comment below*** and let me know if you can make it, and what you’re enjoying (or not!) about my books! I can take it! Really! *grips desk and grabs Kleenex*

Love,

The month of June has seen SO much success.

I’ve already had $1281.79 in sales online and off. So far this year, 1880 units have been sold. Soooo cool! Very thankful right now for all of my readers, including you! My “Dissonance” alien invasion book saga appears to be a hit! 🙂 I want to thank all of you for your support and readership!

I want to thank all of you who have supported me in this. I had a WONDERFUL vendor market this past weekend at the LoveOly Festival in downtown Olympia, and met so many wonderful readers. Thank you for stopping by! Next up? Kent Farmers Market! Be sure to check the News page to see where I’ll be holding a booth next.

Have you read my books? Please take a moment to leave a review for the book on Amazon and Goodreads, if you wouldn’t mind – I would be so grateful. I can’t even begin to tell you how important positive reviews are in terms of momentum and awareness. Thank you so much for considering!

Let me know in the comments below what you thought of the book you’ve read!

The screenplay is coming along really well, and I can’t wait to present news of it to you.

I just finished narrating Dissonance Volume Zero: Revelation this morning and that audiobook will be released soon as well. MANY thanks to my friend Vance Pease for listening to all of them, and to Walker Armstrong, Shirley St. James, and of course my beloved bride Janine for reading them through.

Thank you again, all of you – thank you so much for sharing in this journey with me!

Happy Friday! Here’s a bullet point update for some awesome news!

1. Dissonance Volume III: Renegade publishes on my 51st birthday – TOMORROW! Yep, 5.18.24. What would make a wonderful birthday gift for me? Buy my books please! And when you’re done, leave a positive review on Amazon. Those go a LONG way. Thanks! 🙂
2. In other news, the prequel, Dissonance Volume Zero: Revelation is DONE! I started it on 4.29.24 and finished it yesterday, 5.16.24. As with Dissonance Volume I: Reality, it took me only three weeks to write it. CRAZY! It’s deeply moving, stirring, and had me bawling at points. Not kidding. You see what this family went through when the gorgons came. I’m so happy I didn’t move on after the trilogy was done because this prequel is POWERFUL. It’s been submitted to my wonderful wife for editing!
3. And in more news, Screenwriter Alan Roth is working hard on the screenplay for Dissonance Volume I: Reality, and I am giggling with anticipation like an 11-year-old schoolgirl. So exciting!
4. And in yet still OTHER news, I get to host an author signing at Barnes & Noble! They’re carrying my books, so on August 10th at the Olympia branch I’ll be signing books. Check the News page: this summer is chalk-full of signings and trade show booths. Super stoked!
5. And in even yet still more further additional OTHER news, if you’re an audiobook listener, Dissonance Volume II: Reckoning is now available on Audible!

You can buy any of the books here, or you visit the links above. THANK YOU ENDLESSLY FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

I’D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU! LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK IN THE COMMENTS BELOW. THANKS!

Well, I’m done! Just awaiting feedback from a few people including my beautiful wife on Dissonance Volume III: Renegade, and then it will publish on my 51st birthday, May 18th. (Fitting, isn’t it? Area 51 is full of aliens….my book is about aliens. Yeah. That.)

I mean it when I say that Dissonance Volume III: Renegade is POWERFUL. It’s going to blow you away!

BUT! I didn’t feel “released” from the trilogy yet, and I love where this story has gone, so I’ve begun work on a prequel. It is called….drum roll please… “Dissonance Volume Zero: Revelation.” It’s going to cover when the gorgons actually arrived, and the mayhem that ensued. And, for your viewing pleasure, check out the cover!

ALSO! GREAT NEWS, if you haven’t heard already….I’m partnering with Alan Roth of Act Two Media to develop a screenplay of Dissonance Volume I: Reality for pitching to producers of streaming services like Netflix, Paramount+, Apple TV, Prime Video, etc.. I’m THRILLED with this development and ask for your prayers that it will go well and that we’ll get some interested parties. SUPER stoked about this.

Thank you for your support! Let me know what you think of the trilogy so far! How do you like the cover? What do you think about the news of the screenplay being created? Let me know in the comments below!

Thanks again!
