The Prepping Acadmey welcomes Boyd Craven on the show! Boyd Craven has penned over 30 books under his real name. His “The World Burns” Series has hit the top 10 in the Dystopian Genre in the USA, the UK, Canada and Australia. Boyd has made his home in Michigan with his wonderful wife and about a million kids, but travels to Texas to visit family as frequently as possible. He hunts and goes fishing when he’s not dreaming up post-apocalyptic nightmares to put his characters through. Fear not though, Boyd is a huge believer that in the darkest hour, there is always a glimmer of hope to hold onto. Lately, Boyd has been experimenting with living off the grid – an excellent way to research for his series, as well as torture his teenage sons. Prepare yourself by reading his books – they’re a thrill ride, on or off the grid.Boyd Craven Books on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2JyfW8hPrepping Academy Show Website: http://preppingacademy.com/Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/preppingacademy)
