He has written three books, entitled Dragons: Lexicon Triumvirate, Reincarnation and The 0th Dimension. The first two books, Dragons: Lexicon Triumvirate and Reincarnation, were published by DNA Press, a vanity publisher, through their Nartea imprint. They are no longer in print.

He has also written for Philosophy Today and Bewildering Stories. SFist: Kenneth Eng, Fair And Balanced SFist: Kenneth Eng Around The Web

Eng attracted further attention after the Virginia Tech Massacre by claiming credit for it, saying that his own angry writings about non-Asians inspired Seung-Hui Cho and announcing in a YouTube video that "I'd just like to say that I just read about the Virginia Tech incident and it was the funniest thing I ever read in my life." Eng also said he had wanted to conduct a similar shooting spree while attending New York University but could not afford a gun.

On May 11, 2007, Eng was arraigned on several charges that alleged that he threatened to kill his neighbor and her daughter, as well as their dog. Three months later he pled guilty and was ordered to attend a 12-month outpatient mental health program. The court reserved the right to resentence him to up to four years in prison if he did not comply with the program's daily psychotherapy or failed to take his medication. He arrived home after his sentencing to be rearrested by federal authorities for allegedly threatening another NYU film student over the phone, but has been released on $500,000 bail.

Eng described himself as anti-American, anti-democracy and anti-theist. Gawker.com recently published a copy of Eng's resume, along with his book proposal for an Untitled Asian Controversy Project. The proposal outlines seven chapters: "Why I Hate America", "Why I Hate Whites", "Why I Hate Italians", "Why I Hate Blacks 2" (a continuation of his AsianWeek article), "Why I Hate Religion", "Why I Hate The Media", and "Why I Hate Asians And Yes I Am Being Sarcastic". The last "will point out the silliness of civil protest and why whites, blacks and Italians should not be treated with any kindness."

He has called convicted murderer Chai Vang "righteous" and "brave".
