Hello, my name is Ryan. I currently reside in a decent size town in Texas. I am a single father doing my best to raise two of the craziest little boys I have ever met. I currently work nights in manufacturing, which affords me the opportunity to do what I enjoy doing most, writing. My work is fairly easy, so all night I have time to think about my works. I write on my breaks and at lunch, its hard to write at home with two little boys! Fortunately, I am able to write after the little ones are sleep and I love to write about any numerous types of things.

I have support from my family who lives close. Being a single father, well, is rather lonely, even with the kids around. But, fortunately, it gives me the fuel I need to write the kind of stories I like to write. Other things I do enjoy doing, are automotive and construction. I have been a handy man since I started working with my dad at age 12. I have a broad, well defined knowledge base of most things automotive, except transmissions!

But, that pretty much sums me up, single father, mechanic, worker man, processor, and most of all, a happy writer!

We love getting into them knowing that they will start each time, knowing you wont have any routine maintenance for a long time to come. But, mostly we love the new car smell. There are man...
