Rodney Fenner
Rodney Fenner is a thirty-six-year-old author and screenwriter from Norfolk, Virginia, whose love for storytelling began rather unusually. As a ninth grader, Rodney had come across a girl’s poetry notebook, and that became the start of his lifelong affair with words and creative expression. And when someone once told him he couldn’t write a novel, Rodney turned that doubt into determination. He not only proved them wrong but also discovered a deep love for telling stories that have continued to drive him until today. The storytelling of Rodney goes beyond novels. This pull to create is magnetic, drawing him into screenwriting, where he has already completed two screenplays with more in development. His ambition doesn’t stop there plays are next on his horizon as he tries to explore every form of storytelling and reach an audience in ways that are new and different.
His books, A Haunting Journey Through The Fallout Of Trauma and When We SeekConnection, Sometimes We Find Entanglements, have been lauded as some of the best books about human nature. With powerful stories, Rodney delves deep into the complexities of relationships, connections, and emotional turmoil that define our lives. He speaks to readers who like to read about thought-provoking themes, so his stories are a standout contribution among books by Black American authors.
Based in Virginia, Rodney has found a supportive, creative community. He works with publishers to realize his literary vision and ensure his stories reach readers who appreciate their depth and insight. Storytelling for Rodney Fenner is not stopping anytime soon, and the journey has just begun. Be it novels, screenplays, or future stage plays, Rodney’s work dares readers to contemplate the intricacies of human nature and encourages them to write for their lives.
