D.M.(Doug) Pruden is a professional geophysicist who worked for 35 years in the petroleum industry. For most of his life he has been plagued with stories banging around inside his head that demanded to be let out into the world. He currently spends his time as an empty nester in Calgary, Alberta, Canada with his long suffering wife of 34 years, Colleen. When he isn’t writing science fiction stories, he likes to spend his time playing with his granddaughters and working on improving his golf handicap. He will also do geophysical work when requested.

All of my books are available at Kobo, Apple and B&N in addition to Amazon. At this time, I am not publishing print books until I can find another printing arrangement other than Amazon's native one. When that happens, I will resume producing print books and maybe even venture into audio in the near future.(less)

SFWA releases its Space is Big Bundle

I’m bursting with excitement about this new SFWA bundle. Why? On a whim, in late 2022 I decided to enter my (then) latest novel into a competition to select 15 quality sci-fi novels to be included in the March 2023 Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers Association Bundle sale. Nothing ventured and all that, right? I […]

Quotes by D.M. Pruden  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“don’t believe in fate. I think there is a role for us to play. Some of us are cursed with knowing our purpose from an early age. Most can blissfully search for it throughout their lives, making do with what they discover and attributing it to destiny. I think we are given the opportunity to accept what the universe, or God, or some higher power sets before us and make the best of things. Some would call it living in the moment.”
D.M. Pruden, Kaine's Sanction
