Goodkind studied drawing at the Omaha School of Fine Arts before going into his father's mail-order business for a number of years. In 1983 he moved deep into the forests of New England and began to build his own house by hand.
Before turning to fiction in his 40s, Terry Goodkind used his rich imagination and love of nature in an array of careers. He has been a carpenter, a violin maker, a hypnotherapist, and a wildlife artist. He has also restored rare artifacts, including Native American birch-bark canoes and African fertility masks.
