The path to his writing career embarked when he sold his first story to Fear Magazine in 1988—a remarkable initial flame that was only fanned higher when he published his first novel, ‘Mindstar Rising’, four years later. Nestled in Rutland, England, Peter now shares his life with his wife and children, penning his novels enveloped in their warmth and love.
