ABOUT
Ben Kesp is an independent mystery and fantasy author, publisher and brand name who lives in Ireland. Ben has published several books, distributed internationally.
Writing started as a form of escapism, delving into another period or world, where characters sprung to life, much influenced by radio drama - visualisation of what cannot be seen. Roald Dahl, Michael Bond, Raymond E Feist, Emily Bronte, J.R.R. Tolkien, Ildefonso Falcones, Carlos Ruiz Zafón, are just some authors that inspire a passion for reading.
Ben teaches creative writing and the craft of writing, helping writers to construct and prepare manuscripts for publication. He has written feature articles for Irish Central, New York; MoonProject, UK; and for other online publications.
Ben continues his passion in writing and teaching.
