I’m Kyle Pratt and Through Many Fires, A Time to Endure, and Braving the Storms are books in my most popular series.
The Final Duty audio book was produced with the help of my sons, James and Robert

If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you know I live on a small farm in the Pacific Northwest. It’s more of a hobby farm than a real agricultural endeavor, but it takes a lot of work. Recently, we decided to clear an area of mostly dead trees. Two of the trees fell against my cuts and smashed nearby fences. Fortunately, only the fences were harmed, but the chickens squawked and complained.
The idea popped into my head recently that with the advent of artificial intelligence, why not have an animated book cover? Of course, it couldn’t be on the actual book cover—not yet, anyway—but it seemed like a fun way to promote a novel. So, I tried to create one using several different A.I. platforms. I could say the tools failed, but in truth, I think we both did.
A few years ago, doctors discovered that I had an autoimmune disorder. Treatment for it stifled my writing and delayed the third book of the Solar Storms Saga. However, doctors have been able to treat the illness and that has allowed me to resume writing. Consequently, the much-delayed third book in the Solar Storms Saga, Facing the Storm, has now been released!

You may have heard that Mount Rainier has been rumbling with quakes recently. Well, it’s true and I live just fifty miles south of Rainier and thirty-two miles north of Mount St. Helens. You might be thinking, “That wasn’t the best location to buy land.” Well, the simple answer is I never gave it much thought back then beyond, “Wow, living between volcanoes, that’s neat.”
