FRESHMAN WRITER AVAILABLE FOR MEDIA REQUESTS

Southern Ohio writer, Ryan Scott Ottney, is on the rise to make a major impact in 2006, and is currently accepting media requests for interviews, features, previews, and more!

In only one-year since his first published comic book credit (THE LEGEND OF ISIS #1), Ottney has positioned himself as a major up-and-coming writer, not only in comic books but also in media and communications.

Ottney is the current writer of the ongoing "LEGEND OF ISIS" comic book series for Alias Enterprises, LLC - soon to be a major motion picture at Paramount Studios - writing issue #9 of his 10-issue contract! Writing credits also include "THE 10th MUSE," and an upcoming issue of "VICTORIA'S SECRET SERVICE" - both for Blue Water Productions and Alias Enterprises.

Also "THE PROMETHEUS EFFECT," appearing in DIGITAL WEBBING PRESENTS #26 (Dec 2005), featuring a short comic book commentary on the role of heroes and their negative influences in our modern society.

Additionally, Ottney is the current Media and Communications Director of Alias Enterprises, LLC. (http://www.aliasenterprises.com), and has in the past handled press release writing and media communications for various comic book creators, publishers, studios, websites, major film studios, advertising agencies, government organizations, and much more.

Ottney is a founding member of SCRYPTIC STUDIOS website (http://www.scrypticstudios.com) - the first and largest website devoted only to comic book writers and writing. Where writers can be writers, rather than sharing the site with artists. Though many fans and creators alike said a "writers-only" website would never survive, Ottney and his Scryptic Studios crew have proved them wrong! Offering sample scripts, story resources, writing news and reviews, and an active message board for writers to share ideas.

"It's my goal to bring more attention to writers in this industry, as well as to promote literacy and the credibility of comic books as serious form of art and literature," said Ottney. "If I can help show people the social value of comics and comic book writers, and use this medium to promote literacy amongst all people, but still never write a top-selling book myself - that would be fine because I'd have done my job here! It's not about me. It's about using my position to help others in something for which I believe strongly."

Ottney is an up-and-coming writer from Portsmouth, Ohio. He has a worked in media, journalism, public relations, comic books and screenwriting.
