Peter’s writing blurs the boundary between novel and short story collection; it builds layers of characterisation through linked pieces that result in profound moments of self-realisation and/or dramatic action. He was recently shortlisted in the Hammond House International Literary Prize and the Ironclad Creative Awards. His short stories and poems have appeared online, in print journals and in several anthologies and his debut book is slated for publication with a traditional publisher.
Peter studied English Literature at The University of Cambridge, was awarded a Distinction for his MA in Creative Writing and is currently working towards a PhD at Exeter University. He is the editor and co-founder of Inkfish Magazine and a committee member for the Penzance Literary Festival.
