For much of my life I wrote computer code, not stories. I was fairly successful at it, and I had a lot of fun doing it. But my true passion was writing books and stories that would inspire and ignite the light of creativity in others, just as my favorite storytellers had inspired me in my youth. I'm still in the early phases of my journey as an author, but it has been quite an adventure so far.

I write contemporary fantasy, epic fantasy, and sci-fi. My books The Remortal, Ghosts of ARCADIA, The Nightcrafters Trilogy, and Clockworkers are available on various digital book stores.

My favorite things include gadgets, science fiction, and cats.

It’s kind of a mix of Harry Potter, The Prestige, and even a little Ghostbusters vibe. I've slipped into a groove where I end up blending magic and science in my stories, and I think it works. As Clarke famously wrote, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."(less)

Don’t look away from the hate, but remember the love too

Today is yet another dark day in American history. In Charlottesville, Virginia there’s a conflict unraveling. This so-called “Unite the Right� protest, a confluence of neo-Nazi, pro-Confederate, and Alt-Right forces, has descended into violence and death.

There are many emotions flowing through the nation at the moment: shock, anger, disappointment. But for many of us, one feeling beats them all.

Quotes by Ramsey Isler  (?)

“Creating something is only half the battle. The other half is finding people who care about it.”
Ramsey Isler

“We all reach a point that is the limit of our understanding. When we stare over the precipice of uncertainty and into the dark unknown that we cannot explain with hard evidence, that is when we trade understanding for belief. At best, we make an educated guess. At worst, we make blind leaps of faith.”
Ramsey Isler, The Ninth Order

“Their lives revolved around evil acts; some within their control, and some not. Some of them weren’t born with the capacity for kindness, and others found it better to spare no compassion for anyone in this cruel world because they felt none would be given to them. Fate deals a bad hand to some folks. Some people are just doomed to be no good.”
Ramsey Isler, The Remortal

“I’m an immortal. But I don’t want to be one anymore. Or rather, I don’t want to be an immortal stuck in a mortal world anymore. There is something greater out there for me, but in order to get it I need someone to put an end to my life in this world.”
Ramsey Isler, The Remortal

“There's none so blind as those who will not listen.”
Neil Gaiman, American Gods

“All good writing is persuasive writing; persuading the reader to buy what you're selling, to side with you, to believe the tales you tell.”
