Endorsements
Through his interviewing and research skills, Ken Walker helped me shape the message of my book for a national audience. I am thankful for the ways he used his writing talent to assemble many of the real-life stories that will enlighten and inspire readers. Without his crafty pen, I don't know that this story could have been told in the way it deserves. Steve Willis, Author, Winning the Food Fight
Ken was of tremendous assistance in helping me whittle down 500-plus pages of notes into a coherent first draft. Most importantly to me, he worked with me to keep me technically sound without the book losing my voice to Ken's voice. In addition, he became a friend. R.B. Mitchell, Author, Castaway Kid
