Kenworthy's work as a writer began by providing an editorial column in a trade publication in the 70s and morphed into technical manuals and standards later in his career. After he retired, he decided to apply his skills to something other than non-fiction. Some of his short stories can be found in a number of recent publications including two anthologies produced by the Citrus Writers, Adventures on the Nature Coast, and a soon-to-be-released gem by the Ozello Writers Association called Three Bridges to Paradise.
His first novel was released last July. It's called The Greatest Softball Game, but it's not just about softball. It's a story about two young lovers who were separated by life's circumstances for eighteen years, the families who were fractured as a result, and how everything seemed to be healed during the events that occurred during that softball game.
