Kenny Kemp

    This author is driven by a restless soul and an enduring desire to both hear and tell compelling stories. Their journey through film studies, a detour into law, and subsequent work as a screenwriter and filmmaker ultimately led to a career in novel writing. A serendipitous award for their memoir launched a publishing career, yet they continue to embrace self-publishing for its hands-on creative control. Their work reflects a deep engagement with narrative, exploring themes with a distinctive voice honed by diverse artistic and professional experiences.
