Peter wrote his first novel at the tender age of ten. Indicative of his love of mischief, it was a story about a chimpanzee that caused havoc in a young boy’s life. As a young adult, he focused on important things, like raising a family, performing in a band and playing hockey.
Pete rediscovered his love for the written world in 1996 when he became a Technical Writer. Shortly thereafter he moved to Rochester, NY and met Lois Gresh, a published author who sparked his interest in trying his hand at writing novels. A few workshops later, Pete gathered up enough courage to participate in the annual Muskoka Novel Marathon for literacy, a tradition he observes to this day.
Peter prefers to write fast-paced reads and his knack for finding humor in everyday life shines through the pages of his works. A romantic at heart, he credits his wife, Carly, for being his inspiration. Pete now lives in Toronto where he divides his time between his family of five children, his wife, his job as a technical writer, and his passion for creating fabulously fun works of fiction.
