Kyle grew up on the side of a mountain in Western North Carolina, far enough from neighbors that imagination was often his primary companionship. He’s been making up characters, worlds, and stories in his mind ever since. Now, after a business career that included a decade working in China, he’s putting those stories on paper.

From his home in Fort Mill, South Carolina, he merges the nuances of the real world with the magic of imagination and weaves stories to both entertain and provoke reflection.
