 About me!  I'm fear itself, aka Ryland! i've worn a lot of hats in my life, but right now my focus is my writing. (any visual artists wanting to collaborate on that writing should hit me up) in recent years i've taken up interest in the perservation and documentation of old television (including the programming, bumpers, and commericals), dying malls/retail, and themed entertainment. it's my dream to work in any of these industries, or bringing these industries into the creator economy. combining the staying power of digital content creators, and the storytelling capabilities and mass reach of classic television, physical retail, and themed entertainment experiences such as theme parks is in my opinion, the next major step in the foundation of the creator economy. i'm really bad at networking but i'm hoping to meet the right people to make things happen :)
