Author Peter Harrison wasn't born a storyteller and writing wasn't an obvious career. However, every day growing up was an education in the art of telling a story. Whether watching his father, a lawyer, speak with clients, to listening to his mother sing the folk songs she learned from his Grandad, there were things to imitate and learn. It was the shared stories that set Peter on a path he's still learning to walk. Later, Peter was inspired by "The Lord of the Rings" movie trilogy to achieve a Firm and T.V. Production degree from Boston University. There, Peter met many of his friends he considers family, with whom he moved to New York City shortly after graduation. He worked as a camera assistant but never stopped writing. The COVID-19 pandemic shut down filming and Peter could finally plan "The Things We Fear As Children." Though originally a short-film script, he pivoted to a book format after discovering Marusa's artwork on Instagram. She agreed to collaborate which helped Peter discover a love for a new media. The result is Peter's debut book, but it won't be his last. With every new draft of a story, his love for storytelling and writing is only magnified.
