Peter Prellwitz has been writing stories, plays and skits since the fifth grade. As a child and young adult, Peter saw limited publication of one play and two series of children’s puppet skits. Just enough to hook him for life.

Presently, Peter has a total of nine novels published in trade paperback and ebook, all by Double Dragon Publishing. His novel Horizons was selected by Mike Resnick as Best Science Fiction and awarded that publisher’s 2003 Draco Award. Four of his short stories appear in the anthology Twisted Tails, which won the 2006 Dream Realms. Five of his novels have also been finalists in the Epic Awards over the past few years. He continues writing novels and short stories. Six more short stories have appeared in the Defending the Future; the Bad-Ass Faeries; Beyond the Cradle and Twisted Tails anthologies. His latest novel is the just released Redeeming the Plumb. His next works, due for release in 2019, will be a series of Martian westerns as told by H.K. Devonshire, Mars’ most popular Martian author.

Together with more than four dozen short stories located on his site, Peter’s novels weave a tapestry of mankind’s exploration and settling of the galaxy over the next two and half millennia in his ongoing Shards Universe.

A native Arizonan, Peter has also lived in Wisconsin, California, Hawaii, New York, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania, where he now lives with his wife, Bethlynne. In addition to writing, Peter enjoys history, backpacking, and languages. And dachshunds. Always dachshunds.
