[Peter Flanagan - Writer - Science Fiction * Fantasy * Adventure

"If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them."   -- Henry David Thoreau

This site is part of that foundation.

I am a husband and father in my thirties, and have been writing professionally since 1999. While I have always prided myself on being creative, I have found that by having the right outlook, being creative and professional can complement each other. This outlook has allowed me to complete assignments in a timely manner without feeling that my imagination is being constrained.

OBJECTIVE To make a living doing what I love -- writing! Particularly, doing so while writing stories about adventure in fantastic times and places.
