The Backstory

Why Defying My Odds Exists

Ken wrote Defying My Odds after deciding he was done letting addiction define his life. It's not a polished redemption story — it's an honest one, written the way he actually experienced it.
Every copy sold and every donation given goes toward helping fund future programs to help addicts — because Ken knows firsthand how much that kind of support matters.
