Doug Peters
Doug Peters has been writing stories ever since he can remember, and has always had a love of the sci-fi, fantasy and horror genres. Fortean in philosophy, he graduated in Education, is also a musician, assists with the administration of two music festivals in Yorkshire, and actively supports campaigns on social justice and disability rights. He wrote his first book at the age of seven, trying unsuccessfully to pass it off at primary school as the real thing; unfortunately the drawings gave it away.
