Writing and Journalism

Kelner's journalism includes a weekly column for The Guardian, Screen Break, taking a lighthearted look at the world of sport on TV, and a fortnightly column about radio. He writes occasional travel pieces for The Mail on Sunday, and has written for The Independent, of which his brother Simon Kelner was executive editor.

Other publications he has written for include GQ, Men's Health, Later (now defunct), RCME, The Observer, Landrover Owner magazine, You magazine, and Public Servant, the local and national government journal. He also has contributed to the YouGov website.

His first book, about the outer suburbs of show business, was called When Will I Be Famous?

Kelner was also responsible for a 1992 local publication in Leeds called The International Pest. A query posted to Kelner's website regarding the provenance of the magazine revealed that it was published in partnership with Anthony Quinn aka Edouard LaPaglie from his radio shows.

Famous quotes containing the words writing and/or journalism:

    “... in writing you cannot possibly be interesting if what you say is not true, if it is what I call “a true lie,” i.e., a truth which gives the wrong impression. For no matter how subtly you lie in writing, people know it and don’t believe you, and the whole secret of being interesting is to be believed.”
    —Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    “Literature is the art of writing something that will be read twice; journalism what will be grasped at once.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
