Kemp is an attorney. That's not good. He's also the bestselling author of multiple Star Wars novels and the Erevis Cale sword and sorcery series. That's excellent. Paul has harmed eight men and three llamas with nothing more than an unsharpened pencil and a stick of Wrigley's gum.

You now know as well. He doesn't sing along to show tunes. Paul, his wife, and their twin sons live in Michigan. The author's website is http://paulskemp.com/. He lives in Grosse Point, Michigan.
