If there is one think I’ve learned from years working as a psychologist, it is that we humans are story-creators. Using my training as a psychologist in the writing of Memoirs From the Asylum His wife, Rosalyn Weene, is a well known painter whose work has been shown in Europe and throughout the United States Happily married for thirty-four years, the Weenes have one “adopted” son and two grandchildren. A psychologist by profession, he has also published a number of papers in that field. His essays have been picked up by a few newspapers, especially on Long Island, New York, where he was living. An anthology of Ken’s work, Songs For My Father, was published 2002. His poetry has appeared in a number of magazines and on the web. He soon branched out to include short stories, plays, and essays. Throughout his career Ken has also been devoted to writing. He started writing poetry to help him deal with mid-life. Ken is a New Englander by upbringing and inclination and his career – primarily in New York – included teaching, pastoral care, and psychology. His first novel, Widow’s Walk, was published in 2009. Today I’m welcoming Kenneth Weene to Ascroft, eh? to talk about how he used his psychology training in writing his second novel, Memoirs From The Asylum.
