Produktbeschreibung

We, Who Walked Beneath The Stars was written by Ray Dio Ryterski over the span of about two years. The idea to compose a collection came to Ray after the title poem lost a poetry contest. After failing to publish the title poem as a stand alone piece, Ray thought about what they wanted to do with the poem, not wanting to let it sit and collect dust. It was then that Ray had the idea to write a collection based upon and woven around the title piece.The initial conception of this collection was focused on expanding the imagery and message of the title piece. With a brainstormed list of titles, Ray began writing what would one day become the book you are reading now. As they were writing this book, Ray's vision of the book's message changed. At first, Ray just wanted to expand upon the imagery and message of the title poem. But as Ray kept writing, Ray realized that there was something beyond simple expansion that they wanted to showcase. What started out as a fun little project became more serious and personal.

Autorenporträt

Ray Dio Ryterski is a disabled writer from Colombia, Illinois, where they have lived all their life. As a kid, Ray was always recognized as a good writer and was encouraged by others to pursue a career in writing. Even though Ray has always thought that writing was not real work that would support others, Ray eventually decided that they wanted to give it a good honest try anyways. They thought that the worst possible thing that could happen by pursuing a career in writing was that people would say that their writing wasn't worth reading and that they had wasted their time and effort. So when they were at one of the lowest points in their life, they started writing the manuscript that would eventually become this book. What motivates Ray to keep writing is the opportunity to speak their truth so others may heal. When Ray writes, they often think about and are inspired by works of art that have deeply resonated with them.
