Darby Kern

I've been a working writer for over twenty years, but most of my writing has been in the audio drama field. I started with producing about 100 scripts for the Left Behind audio dramas produced by GAP Digital. Another 30 or 40 scripts for Kid's Corner and Back to God. Since then I've written scripts for Lamplighter Theater and Heirloom Audio, the producers of The Extraordinary Adventures of G.A. Henty.

In 2019 my company, Tannhauser Gate Entertainment, released our first original, and very independent, audio drama The Jake Muller Adventures: Unidentified. You can order it at www.jakemulleradventures.com

In 2020, just as Caronavirus (COVID 19) was taking over the world, Athanatos Publishing Group published my novel, "Wounded Blue," a grittier crime story than would be expected of me based on my previous audio dramas. It's a story about the kind of addictions people don't generally talk about in mixed company and one or two of the consequences that can come from not addressing them. It's a modern story but written in a more hard-boiled style, closer to Lawrence Block than Steinbeck. It's a quick read that I hope you enjoy, and I also hope it makes you ask some tough questions.

I call Titletown U.S.A. my home, where I write during the night and do several other jobs during the day. Occasionally I spend time with my wife and kids and sleep.
