edit data

Kendall Smith’s foray into the writing world began with his self-published debut novel Double-Edged Justice in 2007. His experience sharpened his perspective on the business and craft itself. After a brief stint as a political-satire blogger, he returned to his roots within the thriller and mystery genre when Vault 21-12 was released in 2015.

Shortly thereafter, he put pen to paper about a subject where his passion lies as a parent: Fatherhood. His forthcoming book, Rookie Father, will be released by Familius Publishing. The book is available today at major online book retailers and will be distributed nationally in early January 2022.
