After leaving the military in 2008, he joined the faculty at Atrium Health Carolinas Medical Center Family Medicine Residency in Charlotte, NC where he has continued to train family medicine residents for the last 14 years in addition to taking care of his own patient panel. He embraces the generalist nature of family medicine, enjoying pediatric, adult, and geriatric patients alike, and relishes his role as the go-to person for minor surgical procedures in the office.


His first published novel, The Mussorgsky Riddle, was born from a fusion of two of his lifelong loves: classical music and world mythology. The Stravinsky Intrigue continues those same themes, and his Fugue & Fable series culminates in The Tchaikovsky Finale. His The Pawn Stratagem contemporary fantasy series, Pawn’s Gambit, Queen’s Peril, and King’s Crisis combines contemporary fantasy, superheroics, and the ancient game of chess. His YA novel is Carol, a modern-day retelling of A Christmas Carol billed as Scrooge meets Mean Girls. His short stories can be found in numerous anthologies and magazines, and the best, particularly those about a certain Necromancer for Hire, are collected under Darin’s imprint, 64Square Publishing.


Doctor-by-day and novelist-by-night, he writes and practices medicine in Charlotte, NC. When not engaged in either of the above activities, he has been known to strum the guitar, enjoy a bite of sushi, and rumor has it he even sleeps on occasion. Find him online at darinkennedy.com.
