In Skipping Stones, Ryan writes about many things, long-dead saints, personal tragedy, everyday observations, and the nature of prayer. But what connects this collection is Ryan's desire for a transcendent experience. His vivid and story-driven poems create a secondary world for the reader to explore, worlds in which belief is possible and the divine looms large. For Ryan, "the Christian poet, and storyteller as well, is like the blind man whom Christ touched," and poetry "an invitation to deeper and stranger visions."

Autorenporträt
"Ryan Diaz moves between form and free verse in this collection of poems that share the joy and sadness of a funeral home, the comfort and calling of saints and scripture, and which never forget how 'the wilds remind us / that for all our progress they are wilder still.'" -Nate Wilbert, author of Empty the Empyrean "Ryan's poems nearly groan with longing. Each is a meditation meant to be savored as Ryan searches for meaning, hope, and Christ's presence in all things. After reading each poem I felt as if I had an epiphany, understanding the world around me so much clearer." -Shemaiah Gonzalez, essayist and storyteller "The poems of Ryan Diaz guide readers on a pilgrimage through nostalgia and prayer, through childhood memories, through the lives of vanished saints, and through his own humble quest for grace in this decidedly ungracious age in which we live. I, for one, follow his words with assurance." -Nicholas Trandahl, award-winning author of Mountain Song "Packed with potent and absorbing imagery, Diaz takes the reader through the intimate awe and heart-rattling journey of prayer." -Bria Alston, children's book author
