About Author

Fred Kerber Jr. is the Director of Information Technology for a payroll provider in Pennsylvania, an accomplished programmer, and a previously published author. His first publication—a collection of short stories—offered a range of unique perspectives, each rooted in personal lessons and lived experiences. Beyond his professional achievements, Fred has played a guiding role in the lives of several children, helping them grow into resilient young adults. That journey has shaped his understanding of what it means to support, protect, and ultimately empower the next generation. His writing often reflects this philosophy: that true strength lies not just in standing tall but in knowing when to reach out and when to let go.

Through fiction, Fred explores the complexities of human emotion, the weight of difficult choices, and the quiet power of personal growth. The Strength Within is a testament to that vision—an honest, heartfelt look at pain, healing, and the ties that bind us.
