Howdy, I'm Ryan Keith and I'm the author of Black Machetes, Error Code, The Aparting, The Express, and a short-list finalist of the 2015 Eric Hoffer Award.

When I'm not writing or marketing my fiction, odds are I'm probably incubating gnarly software in Seattle where I reside with my beautiful wife and teenage kiddos.

How do you deal with writer’s block?

R.K. Howard When I hit a wall, it usually means it's time for me to step away and focus on something else. I usually have a dozen or so projects going on at once.…moreWhen I hit a wall, it usually means it's time for me to step away and focus on something else. I usually have a dozen or so projects going on at once. Also, I do all of my own cover artwork, so sometimes I'll switch contexts and go work on the art or on promotional tasks. Alas, after I've put a few hours in on promotional work, then believe you me, I'm ready to write!(less)
