My name is Ryan A. Quick and I am an author and illustrator. When I was twelve years old, I was diagnosed with autism which hasn't stopped me from doing the things I really like such as cycling.

For a number of years, I have been drawing and illustrating by free hand. My first book, "Speeding By the Dozen" is about the adventures of 12 teens on a cross-country race involving 4 NASCARs, 4 motorcycles, and 4 Indycars.
​
My second book, “Foreign Adventures: The Lost Golden Pen”, is about Ryan Kim and his friends on their international adventures in Russia, Germany, Italy, Libya, and Greece.
