Sherlock Holmes by Rick Kennedy Rick Kennedy, author of the Perry the PawnPusher series, has been playing chess almost 50 years. His fiction has appeared in different places, such as: Chess 'n' stuff, Chess Atlas, Chess Life, and School Mates. He has chronicled the misadventures of Perry the PawnPusher, revealed a half-dozen chess-based adventures involving Sherlock Homes, and even reported on the chessic hi-jinks of his daughter, Mary Elizabeth, and his son, Jonathan. In a more serious vein, he has written, along with Riley Sheffield, The Marshall Gambit in the French and Sicilian Defenses. His theoretical articles and historical researches have appeared in the Unorthodox Chess Openings Newsletter. He is editor and publisher of "The Silent Knight," the monthly newsletter for the United States Chess Association of the Deaf (and an excellent article about America's best deaf chess player - Russell Chauvenet). In a less serious vein, he is deeply researching the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+ Kxf7 5.Nxe5), some results of which can be seen at the Chess History Center. Rick is always looking for Jerome Gambit games and analyses! In real life, Rick (a social worker counseling children) lives in Columbus, Ohio, with his wife of 26 years, Libby (a school psychologist), and two teenagers, Mary and Jon. College son Matt - who wrote a story for School Mates, got it published, got paid, and then got extra credit in English class for it - graduates in '03 and is headed for AmeriCorps. Enjoy Rick's stories! |
