Welcome to Episode 101 of the Course of Action Podcast. Today, we welcome Ryan Steck, also known as The Real Book Spy to the show. Ryan is a bestselling author of the Matthew Redd series, including his newest book that drops on June 3rd called "Out for Blood".
Listen in as Ryan drops some serious knowledge about the publishing industry, writing, finding an agent, and much more.
Ryan's Matthew Redd series starts with Fields of Fire, and then moves into Lethal Range, and now, Out for Blood.
Ryan began his career as a sports beat writer for the Detroit Lions, hoping to stay in sports writing when fiction called him. His love for fiction books expanded when he was coined one of the biggest MItch Rapp fans from the late author Vince Flynn, and then again when he became The Real Book Spy. Now, Ryan has several fantastic books for fans of Yellowstone and CJ Box, and a massive following on his website that follows the latest and greatest in the fiction world, from book deals to breaking entertainment news.
