Who We Support

We specialize in supporting:

💡 Creators at the Crossroads

🎲 TTRPG creators & Narrative Designers

'Our services are modular, co-creative, and tailored to meet you where you are—because no two creative journeys are the same.

✨ Your project doesn't have to be massive—just meaningful.

📚 Fiction authors Building Expansive Worlds

🛠️ Small Studios & Game Teams

🧙‍♂️Indie Creators & Solo Developers

You have a vision—but not always a team. We help you brainstorm, worldbuild, and shape your story without needing a full creative department.

Whether you’re designing a one-shot module or building a new setting for your system, we help you flesh out lore, factions, maps, and player-facing story arcs.

You’re writing more than a book—you’re crafting a world. We support novelists and serial authors who want consistent lore, naming systems, and immersive cultures.

You need narrative scaffolding to support mechanics, gameplay loops, or visual design. We provide modular creative input that slots into your existing pipeline.

We’re here for those facing creative block, burnout, or decision fatigue. Whether you're rebooting a project or stuck on one key lore piece, we provide clarity and forward motion.

🌱 Underrepresented & Early-Stage Creators

We offer sliding-scale pricing and collaborative discovery to make professional narrative design accessible—especially to those traditionally overlooked by big studios.

🎒 Early-stage or low-budget?
We offer sliding-scale pricing for underrepresented or emerging creators. No red tape—just honest collaboration.

Why ‘Mythic Quill Studios’?

🎯 What We Stand For

🛡️ Creative Integrity
We protect your vision—not overwrite it. Everything we build is rooted in respect for your voice and goals.

The name represents the intersection of imagination and structure—mythic worlds powered by practical storytelling systems. The “Quill” is a nod to the timeless nature of storycraft, while the “Studios” reflects our flexible, collaborative structure.

🤝 Co-Creation Over Control
We're not a vendor—we're a partner. Every session and project is collaborative by design.

✨ Access & Empowerment
Great storytelling shouldn't require a massive studio budget. We offer sliding-scale options and transparent service tiers to support creators of all sizes.

📜 Craft First, Flash Later
We're not here for hype—we're here for deep narrative work that actually supports your project.

👤 About the Founder

Ryan L. Smith is a storyteller, writer, founder of Mythic Quill Studios LLC, and Mythic Quill Publishing. With a love for narrative fiction and a passion for helping creators navigate the fog of worldbuilding, Ryan built this studio to support others like him: dreamers, makers, and problem-solvers with a story to tell.

A Personal Note from Ryan

I started Mythic Quill Studios to help creators who feel stuck, overlooked, or overwhelmed—the ones with big, meaningful ideas and no clear way to bring them to life. I know that feeling all too well: when a great concept is burning in your mind, but you can’t quite pull it into focus… or worse, you’re right at the edge, staring up at a glass ceiling you can’t break through.

This studio is my answer to that.

Whether we’re building worlds, shaping lore, or just talking through ideas until something clicks, my goal is simple: to help you move forward with confidence. To build something better. Smarter. More you.

There’s magic in this work. You just have to know where to look—and sometimes, you need the right guide to walk with you through the forest.

Let’s make something unforgettable.
