Hi! I'm Brennan Kenneth (he/they). I'm Queer, Red River Métis, and work as an independent author and web developer. I'm 30 years old, born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and currently based in Mohkínstsis in Treaty 7 territory.

I'm the founder of Berry House, where I do pro bono consultations and accessible JAMstack projects; the sole operator of Folk Zone, a self-hosted experiment in contributing to the IndieWeb/Fediverse commons; and the webmaster of Fanfiction.lol, a fork of Archive of Our Own with 300+ users. In 2022 I founded Write Club, a creative collective for writers that grew from one person to 100+ members over the three years I ran it.

rw.rs is the "random web server": an open-source, free-to-join tildeverse pubnix with a 199X aesthetic. Newest account on the roster, so this page is the standard signpost for now.
