At the moment, I am not represented by an agency.
First-off I would like to thank you for stopping by…
I write because words are all I have; I’ll out-rightly out write you because you write what is rightly right!
My name is Alexander Kennedy, I am 26 years old and live here in Kingston Upon Hull – England. As a young “Mental Challenged” teen I quickly developed a love for rhyming words (Aspirations of becoming a white rapper/ poet.) But I didn’t know it was the love for the shock of words I loved.
But after a few years on the poet scene I found out the words I used were no longer filling that void within me. I needed a challenge while I was attending a mental health hospital for delusions, unable to tell the difference between reality and dreams, walking around and having terrors form right before his eyes, all the while trying to keep my “Normal life” held together. I found a way out in Short stories and Screenplays. I generated myself as a novice pen-man. But as I marched my way through the writing scene, the words I was using did not have the same effect on me, so thus a novel was needed for his void. Taking all of the distorted images of people and events within my life, I create some of the weirdest and dark toned stories.
To keep my void filled I must still tackle all of my writing on a weekly or daily basis to ensure my pen doesn’t get lazy.
“I have been to hell when I was boy, when I arose from the fires I became a man; now, living out my life as an act to fit in to a place I can never truly be part of, so I write worlds I remember to entertain you from the darkness that raised me.” – “Psycho-Speak” Alex Kennedy.

(YOU STEAL OUR MATERIAL, MY LAWYER WILL HUNT YOU DOWN! …May I just point out some of my earlier stories, from years prior, are from when I was mentally ill and on meds, so there maybe some spelling mistakes and weird twists. No I will not change them! They remind me of a time when I was less than myself now. But as I have grown, so has my work and spell-checking. Thank you.)

I came to your about page to comment that your writing seems to be more a fusion of lyrical poetry and literary commentary only to find you seem to think the same. I think your stuff here and what I’m sure you could do should exist as a sort of commentary byline in a magazine. A series regular sort of thing if you get me, almost a columnist but not quite. Anyways that’s what I get from what you write. Terrific stuff. And whatever you do stay away from those meds, as the psychs have commented themselves they don’t deal in cures. Why they exist if not to “cure” something I don’t really know. But your stuff is great and I look forward to reading more.

Are you familiar with the poetry of William Watson English poet 1858-1935. A poem of his resonated with me when I was an adolescent and still does.
“World Strangeness”
Strange the world about me lies,
Never yet familiar grown–
Still disturbs me with surprise,
Haunts me like a face half known.
So between the starry done
and the floor of plains and seas,
I have never felt at home
Never wholly been at ease.
There are two more verses if you would like to look him up.
