Snowflakes

The silence was broken only by the soft patter of snowflakes and my slow, methodical footsteps. Even the Christmas lights that ran along the edges of my neighbors' houses and on the occasional tree could not lift my spirits. #talein280 #writingprompt @kendallwrites

I started writing when I was eleven years old after I was diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer. At a time in my life when nothing made sense writing allowed me to escape into other worlds and also better understand my own. Since then I have written my own biography about surviving cancer and several other books and short stories.

I am a computer geek that somehow had a bit of a knack for grammar, and I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Business and Computer Information Systems from Idaho State University.
I like to read. A lot! My Father, Austin, instilled in me a strong love of learning.
When I can get away from real life, I like calm water kayaking, camping, hiking or being outdoors in my yard (Landscaping, Gardening, hint, hint, wink, wink).
My wife, Sheila, and I live in the Intermountain West with as many of our kids and grandkids as we can keep close by.
Since 1986, I have either been helping my "authoring" children with their books or working on my own.

I was born with cleft lip and palate and lost my voice regularly as a kid. As a result I spent a lot of time reading and grew up inside the pages of many pieces of classic children's literature. As an adult I want to provide quality books, like those I grew up with, for a new generation of children. I recently started working with Operation Smile to make life changing operations available to those in need.
Free Book: Trustwood
The Mountain Road
The Voyages of the MS Rodent
I Ate My Homework
The Puzzle of Hunter Manor **Coming Soon**
Operation Smile provides cleft lip and cleft palate repair in over 40 countries world wide. They have made these services available in remote areas where they are especially needed. They can provide surgery for as little as $240 per patient.
