Owen Publishers, but his success as a writer will come courtesy of the e-book revolution. He lives off-grid in the woods of Montana with his wife, Helen, and dogs, Molly and Gus.
His dogs get him into the woods twice on a good day, hiking, skiing, or biking. Summers he works in the Montana mountains for the Forest Service. In long winters Lyle spends much of his time as a word and wood crafter.
