my world and words: an uneasy balancing act - RYAN QUINN FLANAGAn
june 2017/ setu
Writing for me has always been an uneasy balancing act between escape and hard reality. I prefer writing or poems that contain strange ideas or turns of phrase while trying to still express something deeply relatable and real. Almost always with a dash of humour. Humour has always been important to me as both a tool of sarcasm and as something to preserve in the face of a world that often does not seem too funny to experience each day...more
interview: RYAN QUINN FLANAGAN by nalini priyadarshini
JUNE 2017/ SETU
When I was younger there was definitely great literature you come across that you have not read and it truly does change your life. It is really just more of the small things in everyday life now. I am a people watcher and get a lot from that. I learned early on that when you listen instead of speak you don’t miss the good stuff...more

poems to knock the sun out of the sky: RYAN QUINN flanagan in his own words
february 26, 2017/ huffington post
Very occasionally, one discovers a writer whose work they instantaneously connect with. This happened to me, when I first read the poems of prolific Canadian talent — Ryan Quinn Flanagan. Flanagan is an artist that doesn’t like to speak about himself, which is refreshing in an era of raging narcissism and shameless self-promotion. Until recently, it was difficult to find any biographical information about the man behind...more

a review: the last days of the worm, a collaborative prose chapbook
FEBRUARY 27, 2017/ screaming with brevity
The Last Days of the Worm, a collaborative prose chapbook by Ben John Smith, Ryan Quinn Flanagan and Rich Wink is a dystopian noir where each of the four main players are as lacking in moral fibre as they are steeped in vice and cynicism. In the not-too-distant future, shortly after Richard Branson purchased the moon and died, in the wake of the Middle Eastern oil drought and broken by the final financial crash, humankind accept their fate; sickness, addiction and an untimely death...more
poet interview #58: RYAN QUINN FLANAGAN
FEBRUARY 15, 2017/ walking is still honest press
Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? At what age did you start writing? Who/what first inspired you to begin? Who are some your favorite writers and artists (past and/or contemporary)? I started writing at the age of ten. No romantic epiphany sort of thing, I had to do it for a school competition. It was a very bad piece but the teachers liked that I could write an original work and recite it. They published it in the local paper and made me recite it many times...more
Interview with ryan quinn flanagan
february 2, 2017/ adam levon brown
Q: When did you start writing? A: My first published poem was when I was ten. A horrible little piece about my teacher for the school competition that I had to keep reciting for people until I forgot it. I remember being SO nervous…probably has a bit to do with my social anxiety disorder now. But as for any real writing attempts they came much later...more

Uno Mas- A Book Well Travelled
JUNE 2, 2016 / BOLD MONKEY
I am an avid collector of first edition books signed by the writer & I was very grateful when I today received a signed copy of Uno Mas, a recent publication of Horror Sleaze Trash Press. What was most impressive was that the book was signed by all four participants in the project, and according to poet Ryan Quinn Flanagan, the book had travelled 44,993 kilometres to get to me in Australia. Is this a...more
