Derrick James – Owner and Operator
Derrick founded one of the first prepper blogs in 2007, SHTF Blog, and began publishing books under Prepper Press in 2011. He has since become a content creator within the prepper niche, establishing a growing presence on various social media platforms.
His interest in prepping began in childhood, when “prepping” was still a fringe concept called “survivalism.” He spent countless hours in the woods, building bushcraft shelters, hunting with his father, and teaching himself how to cook over a fire. This was a time when Americans still lived under the threat of nuclear war with the Soviet Union, something that shaped his views on personal preparedness for years to come.
When he is not in front of or behind a camera, he enjoys hiking, hunting, fishing, practicing primitive skills, and spending time with family. Prepping has been an natural extension of all those interests.
