Ryan Lanz Stories

Welcome!This Patreon page is a tip jar for those who want to support my books and stories.My name is Ryan Lanz, and I write <a href="https://ryanlanz.com/my-books/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">fantasy novels</a>, typically of longer length, including multiple POVs, with a fantasy adventure type feel. I've been writing in some fashion for over ten years.As a thank you to my Patreon supporters, here I'll post behind-the-scenes tidbits, deleted scenes, polls for input, first announcements, and musings on why I made the creative decisions I have in my books. The tone will be conversational, as if we're sitting across from each other at a coffeehouse.If you've ever read one of my books and wondered why Rhael is named the way he is, or why characters say "Three Deaths knows," or why I decided to end book four the way I did, or how Gobo got started being a merchant trader, then this is the place for you.Who would be interested in this? Someone who has read a book of mine and wants to dive deeper into the characters, the world, and the plot. Also, aspiring authors could also gain valuable tidbits on story creation that they might find useful applying, in their own way, to their stories.Start or stop support whenever you feel comfortable doing so. I'm just appreciative that you're here.Note: I won't be posting stories here, other than deleted scenes. This is all behind-the-scenes material. The posts won't be on a schedule. They'll occur as they come up, which could be sporadic. I figure you all would enjoy it more if I sent out the good stuff rather than stretch thinned-out material just to have a reason to post.Second note: this Patreon page previously was a writer's club, where authors would receive benefits and writing tips on how to navigate their writing journey. So, if you're a bit turned around, that's likely why.
