A: All children’s publishing categories are welcome!, (and high likelihood I can help you with adult fiction and nonfiction as well). While I’m best known for my picture books, I've been in this industry directly long enough that I am equally familiar about other formats - I’m deeply passionate about middle grade, comics, and YA. I’ve spent years learning the nuances of these genres and can help you navigate storytelling, publishing strategies, and audience-building for any age range.

A: Yes, I offer very value-priced personalized 1:1 mentorships for writers and artists who are ready to take their craft and career to the next level. These sessions are typically reserved for those that have demonstrated a commitment to go this journey to the end of the line, and as my promise to them, I will be there as long as required. My mentorships are tailored to your specific goals — whether that’s refining your manuscript, building your author platform, or navigating the publishing process. What makes my mentorships extremely unique - is my promise to you - I will be with you as long as it takes.

A: That’s okay! I also offer one-time or as-needed coaching sessions for writers who need targeted feedback or guidance on a specific challenge. These sessions are perfect if you’re looking for clarity on your next steps or want professional insight on your work-in-progress.

A: That depends on your goals and availability. For 1:1 mentorships, we’ll create a schedule that works for you —whether that’s weekly calls, monthly check-ins, or something in between. "My approach is flexible and designed to fit into your life, not overwhelm it". On the flip side, something that sets Ryan apart from most other programs is his commitment and promise to be available to you above and beyond scheduled sessions. When Ryan was first getting into publishing, his one wish that was so difficult was access to experts - Ryan wants his program to feel like a "wishing well". When you commit to Ryan's program, he is committing to YOU!

A: 100%. Building a successful writing career isn’t just about getting published...it’s about creating momentum, relationships, and purpose along the way. Together, we’ll focus on the steps you can take right now to move closer to your goals, whether that’s improving your craft, growing your network, preparing for submission or self-publishing, and most importantly - making real money right now while you turn your dream into a real career on this proven path to publish.

A: Ryan was recently quoted in a conference Q&A forum answering this question, answering, "mindset is the only reason I am published. People may roll their eyes, that is fine, I don't care what anyone else says - it matters more than anything. Because mindset is the foundation of everything. Most writers don’t fail because of lack of talent...they give up because they feel stuck, unsure, or alone". My mentorships are designed to not only teach you the skills you need but also build your confidence, resilience, and belief in your ability to succeed. It may seem like a no-brainer that doesn't require support or guidance - but 95% of new writers fail because of real mistakes I will help them avoid. I want to give this gift to others.

A: "It’s simple! Reach out to schedule a FREE zero-pressure 15-minute consultation. We’ll discuss your goals, challenges, and how I can best support you. From there, we’ll create a plan that’s tailored to your needs and vision. I promise whatever happens you won't regret making the call! Let's talk soon!"
