FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Richard Kennedy Launches Long-Awaited Site that Features his Complete Body of Work.

DALLAS, TX—SEPTEMBER 1, 2006— Novelist, poet and littrateur, Richard Kennedy opens a storefront in conjunction with lulu.com, the world’s fastest-growing provider of print-on-demand books.

A University of Houston graduate and winner of the prestigious Houston Psychological Association’s Award For Excellence In Psychology (1985), Kennedy’s offerings include the anthology House Of December, Simon, The Trip and The Dunning Of Harley Nesbit.  In addition, he has three new projects on his plate: a new novel, The Encuentro (A Children’s Story For Adults), Psychophysics: The Point Of Everything, a treatise of the nature of being, and another volume of poems, Love And Other States Of Insanity.

Asked to summarize his work, the reticent and always tight-lipped witticist would only say, “I don’t do mainstream. I’m neither a slave to fashion nor the fashionable…They (the vast majority of readers) can have their Mickey D’s and their bling-bling and their out-of-body experiences. This isn’t reincarnation. It isn’t my deal. I go where my feet take me, and it’s always from the point of origin, as in original.”  
   
While the jury may still be out on Kennedy’s ultimate place in the world of literature, there are more than a few who appear to believe he has already made a significant contribution:

“Excellent writing.  Written by a true genius!” (Simon)  Lindy C., USA (Poet)

“Excellent!...(He) has an above average genius understanding of words.”(The Dunning Of Harley Nesbit) Helen A., Australia (T.T.I.H.)  

“Very deep…His words will one day soar beyond the stars. So, grab hold of his tail wings and enjoy the ride." (Simon) Deborah P., USA (Poet)

"Born to write, ranking beside any great author of the world today. A brilliant writer who will take you on a journey you will never forget...". (Simon) Karen C., Melbourne, Australia (Journalist)

“...What a fantastic story!...An intricately orchestrated trip of surreal fantasy and humor. "(The Trip) Lindy C., USA (Poet)

“Every literate person should at least one of Kennedy’s books on his or her shelf. This guy really has IT!” (The Trip) Michael Bacon, USA
“…Meditations, or reflections, upon man’s nature and his relationship with God and the universe. (He) shows much technical skill and depth of thought in his always interesting themes…Readers will find the book challenging and interesting…A nice feeling for imagery and word usage adds to the appeal.” (House Of December) Margaret Casicey, The Fort Worth Press
“…Kennedy undoubtedly belongs to the poet clan…(he) is an artist in sentiment as in expression.”  (House Of December) William Ruggles, Dallas Morning News
