About the author — M.J. Kindt

Every name on the family tree is a heartbeat in the dark — a story that refuses to vanish.
Through words, I listen to what the past still whispers.”

Beyond the study of lineage lies a need to understand what endures: memory, creation, and the fire that moves through generations. For M.J. Kindt, tracing the genetic story of his ancestors is inseparable from writing about the human spirit they carried.

As a writer, screenwriter, and poet, he explores themes that echo through a long family history: exile, devotion, silence, and the search for meaning. His creative work — the historical series Dark Age, the dramatic feature By Ordeal, and a growing collection of poems — follows one continuous journey: from ancestral memory to emotional truth.

For him, writing is another form of remembrance — a way of keeping what once was alive.
