My name is Jeff Kennedy and I'm a lifelong author, living in Columbus, OH. My short fiction has appeared in Bright Flash Literary Review and Everscribe Magazine. People ask me what genre I write, and I don't have a good answer. I write comedy, sci fi, and some serious stuff that confuses my family. My first publication was a haiku when I was fourteen. I'm a produced playwright and member of the Dramatist Guild. I'm a past Thurber House and Erma Bombeck essay contest winner. My current passion is micro and flash fiction.
