Peter’s fiction explores people through the choices they make, the relationships they form and the circumstances that shape their lives.
Character-driven and grounded in an enduring curiosity about human behaviour, these stories provide a different way of exploring the people, places and questions that have interested Peter throughout his life.
Peter’s fiction begins with character.
Who is this person?
What do they want?
What are they prepared to do to get it?
An essay arguing that DoD global health engagement needs a new framework, one that builds economic resilience in partner countries while advancing U.S. strategic objectives.
A peer-reviewed article on establishing a Pacific Island trauma system to save lives and support national security.
An analysis of food insecurity as a driver of global security, and of the role special operations forces can play in addressing it.
Professional writing can examine an idea directly.
Fiction offers something different.
It creates room for contradiction, uncertainty, personality and consequence — allowing characters to confront questions without requiring the writer to provide a simple answer.
For Peter, fiction becomes another way of exploring the complexity of people and the circumstances that shape what they do.
