Hey folks, Ryan here.

There's nothing special about me. I'm a designer from a computer science background. I aspire to become a best-selling author someday, and my journey starts here. That's all there is to tell.

Also, I'm gay. I'm so gay that I can't even think straight. Though, you won't believe that if you met me, no one does. I hate it when people are surprised to find out that I'm gay.

Anyways, along with a career as a writer, I also aspire to have a fairy tale romance. Not the Disney style, but still. I want what Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka have. I want my Reed, that's what his name is in my dreams. 

I dream about him every day. I don't know if I'll ever find him and have my happily ever after, but a man can only hope. Sometimes, I think of ending it all, but he keeps me alive. The thought of marrying him someday and having kids is what keeps me going.

A personal note about me: I hate stereotypes, especially the gay ones. I hate it when people are confined to boxes. So many stories on Wattpad are stereotypical. They have characters who are assigned masculine/feminine roles in cliché scenarios. They all support toxic masculinity. The masculine characters are tall, handsome, and straight, while the feminine ones are short, skinny, and flamboyant. This isn't always the case. The reality is far from this. People need to understand that what they write has an impact. What they think is harmless fiction might affect someone across the globe in a grave manner. I'm saying so from personal experience.

With my work, I try to break all these stereotypes. I try to be as close to reality as possible.

If you like my work or if you find any grammatical or conceptual mistakes, reach out to me. 

And Reed, if you are reading this...dude, marry me already.
