About Me
<h2>Peter M. Ball</h2>
PETER M. BALL is an author, publisher, and RPG gamer whose love of speculative fiction emerged after exposure to <em>The Hobbit</em>, <em>Star Wars</em>, David Lynch’s <em>Dune</em>, and far too many games of <em>Dungeons and Dragons</em> before the age of 7. He’s spent the bulk of his life working as a creative writing tutor, with brief stints as a performance poet, gaming convention organiser, online content developer, non-profit arts manager, and d20 RPG publisher.
Peter’s three biggest passions are fiction, gaming, and honing the way aspiring writers think about the business and craft of writing, which led to a five-year period working for Queensland Writers Centre as manager of the Australian Writers Marketplace and convenor of the GenreCon writing conference. He has a PhD in creative writing, specialising in series poetics and digital publishing.
Peter is the author of the Miriam Aster series and the Keith Murphy Urban Fantasy Thrillers, multiple short story collections, and more stories, articles, poems, and RPG material than he’d care to count. He’s the brain-in-charge at Brain Jar Press, delivers regular advice for writers at GenrePunk.Ninja, and publishes his own work under the GenrePunk Books imprint.
