"I wanted to write something original where the reader would have an uneasiness and uncertainty as to how the story would progress. Dead Stir is my love letter to some of my favorite genres filled with everything I would ever want to experience in good storytelling."
The first draft of Dead Stir was released as a serial blog over the span of 6 months. The blog version of the story was chock-full of grammatical errors, but in its essence delivers a compelling adventure. Dead Stir was written in real time with posts nearly every day to help give the reader a sense of reality to its timeline and keep them coming back to see what happens next. The serial blog is no longer available for reading since the polished novel is nearing completion.
"I hope it inspires others to create something of their own based on what they are passionate about."

R.L. Bergner recently sat down and shared some insight into his writing:
How long have you considered yourself a writer?
I would consider that I have been telling stories since before I could write.
What inspires and motivates you to write?
Writing is creating and I am forced to create when my brain is overflowing with ideas. I would say that I have to write more than I am motivated to write, because my mind is constantly racing with a swirl of images and ideas that I must get out of me or risk death by suffocation.
How did you start out?
