Ryan Whiting lives on an island you've probably never been to and probably care little about. Bermuda, a 21-square mile land mass 700 miles off the coast of New York, is an unlikely place to find such a geeky writer. But he exists and types away, ranting about bad story-telling in video games or raving about last night's episode of 24. That is, if it was any good, of course.

But contrary to what his website may say, Ryan's geekdom is not overly eclectic, and he keeps to his fandoms. He's not really into comic books or anime (save for a few exceptions) and, when it comes to that vampire craze, he'd have a hard time discerning even Jacob from Edward. So, he stays away from such areas and sticks to what he likes. Ryan's in love with serialized dramas, sci-fi shows, and video games, specifically RPGs and FPS's. He'd also like to consider himself a film critic, but only for the movies he doesn't walk out on. He won't do it again. He promises.

Ryan's also a bit of a techy, and, whenever possible, tries to stay up-to-date on whatever's current or popular in the gadget-world. Yes, he has to have that latest thing, whatever it is.

Outside of confining himself to either his favorite shows on DVD or the gadget blogs, Ryan has a vested interest in photography, and totes his SLR with him to most places. He even has a photoblog over at Flickr that he updates whenever he can (http://www.flickr.com/ryanwbermuda).

Living on a such a small island can be tough at times, but Ryan, along with his family and friends, works out just fine.
