ⓘ About Peter N. Walker
He also published under the pen names of Tom Ferris, Andrew Arncliffe, James Ferguson, Nicholas Rhea, and Christopher Coram. Peter believed writing was something he always intended on doing. He was still in school, and he went to church. Peter saw an old gentleman in the seat ahead of him and he asked his mom who the man was. She told him it was Major Fairfax-Blakeborough, and he was an author. It got young Peter curious as to what an author did. She told him that he wrote papers, books, and things. Later on, he looked in a weekly paper, the Whitby Gazette, and the man had a piece in there. Jumping ahead, Peter ended up inheriting the man’s column, and he thinks that guy might have been the person that started him on his way.
