Patrick Ryan grew up in Columbus, Ohio and started writing after graduating from college with a Bachelors Degree in Communications and Marketing. After marrying Molly and living vicariously through the sports and activities of their children ~ Colleen, Michael and Patrick ~ while balancing work in the financial services industry, Patrick recently reignited his writing passion in earnest cranking out Blood Verse in a little over a year while working on two novels and a second short story collection at present. An avid sports and music fan, Patrick enjoys Football, Basketball, Baseball, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and hard rock. In addition to writing, Patrick is a voracious reader, taking in an eclectic swath of fiction and non-fiction across many genres, with horror being a favorite. A practitioner of martial arts for over 25 years, he holds a second degree black belt and is a huge fan of Bruce Lee.

Praise for Patrick James Ryan
“Patrick writes a hell of a vicious critter story and these little guys are particularly nasty.  The cover jumps out at you and foreshadows the promise of gore dripping pages of terror. Patrick has written a novel that delivers on this promise and is fueled by copious shots of Nitro. The action is fast and visceral, like a roller coaster ride. He takes the reader on a bumpy ride, full of gore, claws, and bullets….”  –Horror After Dark (on The Night It Got Out)

Poetry from Hell’s Asylum
Original price was: $14.98.$9.98Current price is: $9.98.
An asylum is a place meant for shelter and support, and a place to segregate the mentally ill from the rest of the world, generally speaking. Then again, when you’re in Hell’s Asylum, you’re stuck in a place you don’t want to be….not ever, not in your deepest darkest nightmares. There are those who’ve been there and live to tell. This is the poetry of one who has been there, and it ain’t wine & roses, nor is it mere fire and brimstone and the sickest of twisted evils. It’s worse than that. This is not only Hell…..it’s Hell’s Asylum....
