Peter Apps lives in England and his first novel, The Long Way Round was published in 2010. He has since published two more, Time Akew and Deja Vu To The Nth. He wrote it because he still thinks people are pretty amazing. Peter hasn’t met anyone who has built a space portal, but then again, he hasn’t looked in everyone’s garden shed either. He was born on 1st January 1948 has lived in Sheerness, Kent for most of his life. The Isle of Sheppey where Sheerness is situated has a long, rich history has always fascinated Peter. History might seem a far cry from Science Fiction but imagining life in a Roman settlement is imagining a world just as alien as a distant planet. Although he worked in a series of routine jobs he likes to do his own thing when he can. For example, all his computers are Microsoft free zones and prefers to use Linux. He has always had an interest in science, especially Astronomy. Now that planets have been discovered around other suns, he feels that the time is coming when we could discover intelligent life out there. Other interests include classical music and jazz. He also likes to settle down in the evening watching a good film and enjoying a nice glass of bitter and occasionally visit his local for a chat over a friendly drink.
