Pull up a chair, grab a warm drink, and get ready to travel across the infinite span of time.
If you are a book lover who craves high stakes, gripping drama, and absolute page-turning excitement—but you hate the cold, cynical, and exhausting tone of modern "grimdark" fiction—you have just found your new literary home.
I am Ron Mueller, known as “The Family Storyteller” ™ and I write stories designed for one single, unwavering Purpose:
Your Absolute Enjoyment !!!
You will find my name on the spines of hard science fiction, sweeping fiction, and deeply moving narrative non-fiction. To the traditional publishing industry, jumping between these genres is considered unusual. They like writers to stay inside a single, neat little box. But I believe that a great story is a great story, whether it takes place inside a quiet kitchen, an ancient kingdom, or a starship orbiting a dying sun. While my books span almost every genre on the shelf, they are all bound together by a single, distinct promise: High Drama, Cozy Style. What does that mean for you? It means you will get all the pulse-pounding suspense, emotional complexity, and narrative drive of an epic adventure, wrapped completely in a writing style that feels like a warm blanket on a rainy day. I write about real struggles, grand mysteries, and breathtaking stakes, but I ground them in community, heart, comfort, and the enduring power of human connection. You can dive headfirst into the drama knowing that the journey will respect your time, captivate your mind, and protect your peace. And when I say we are going on a journey, I mean it on a scale few authors ever attempt. Our pathways through my Library will take us across the full, breathtaking epic of time: •The Deep-Time Sci-Fi Sagas: Travel across a two-hundred-million-year expanse, where we watch civilizations rise from the dust of deep space, exploring the furthest boundaries of science while never losing sight of the intimate, cozy hearts of the travellers making the trip. •The Multi-Millennial Fiction: Step into sweeping narratives that stretch across a forty-thousand-year span of human history, culture, and survival, tracking the grand architecture of our shared destiny through deeply personal, high-engagement storytelling. •The Intimate Lifetimes: Dive into focused, character-driven fiction and rich narrative non-fiction that covers the entirety of a single, extraordinary human lifetime—capturing the quiet dramas, triumphs, and everyday magic that make a life worth living. Whether you have twenty minutes before bed or a long, lazy weekend ahead of you, there is a doorway in this book universe waiting for you to turn the handle. You don't have to worry about getting lost, either. I have organized this website so you can filter my stories exactly by the project type you want, or browse custom pathways curated entirely by the specific mood you are in today. Taste the Adventure Before You Travel Want to try before you buy? Every single book in the library features an open-door preview. You can dive right into the action by reading Chapter One and the first part of Chapter Two entirely for free. Find a story that calls to you, sample the vibe, and see if it’s the perfect fit for your reading chair. During the startup period of the next six months every E book is $3.99 or less with the exception on the Collections that have multiple books together. So, where should we travel first? Select your gateway, and let’s begin the adventure together.

She doesn’t chase darkness.
But she never walks away from it.
