William Ricker

William Ricker is an Afrofuturistic fantasy author and creator of the ReShift Pulsers Saga, a story world shaped by extraordinary abilities, identity, discovery, and the consequences of power.

Born and raised in Tampa, Florida, William’s own journey, including being adopted at seven, influenced his interest in belonging, purpose, family, and the choices that shape who we become.

A graduate of the University of South Florida, William brings his love of imaginative storytelling to ORIGINS, Book One of the ReShift Pulsers Saga. Centered on Black characters, hidden truths, and extraordinary forces, the story opens the door to a much larger world waiting to be discovered.

When he isn’t writing, William enjoys traveling, fitness, outdoor adventures, and connecting with his community.
