Kelvin Bueckert is an author, actor, and generally someone with an overactive imagination. His first major
writing achievement was of writing his own name at a young age. Since
then, Kelvin has learned to form three word sentences and recently was
seen writing an entire paragraph in one sitting. But seriously...The
burden of writing weighed upon his slim (but attractive) shoulders for
many years, but it was only after his sister badgered him into
auditioning for, Anne of Green Gables, that things changed. He realized
that the pool of creativity was not something to be hidden, but was in
fact something to revel in. In that way, Anne of Green Gables led into
writing, music, and even more acting. Kelvin felt the joy of having his
first short story published in 2004, since then he has continued to
write, act, and think of crazy things to say in his biography. (Working
title: How Anne of Green Gables Changed My Life.)
