I have completed a Master's degree in Creative Writing at the University of British Columbia. My writing has been staged, anthologized, and I was twice a quarter-finalist in the American Zoetrope Screenplay Contest.
My recent short story collection, Kerəktərs, was endorsed by Mike Reiss - writer and producer of The Simpsons. He said of the collection: “Tim Kennaley takes a strange premise – a grumpy house, a wife cheating with a fish – and spins funny, beautifully written tales. But there’s more than humor, there’s humanity in every story he tells. If you like Simon Rich, you’ll love the characters in Kerəktərs.” The collection also received a positive Kirkus review: “Kennaley's prose is wry and precise. . . . A slim but impressive volume of surprising tales.” The Kirkus review appeared in Kirkus Reviews magazine, and the collection also appeared in American Bystander magazine, which features writers from Saturday Night Live, The Simpsons, National Lampoon, etc.
