Published in several genres, our own Peter Green stands (or rather, zooms) ready to offer a path for writers to want to find their niche, create platforms, plot and pace for best effect–complete with examples from modern masters.
Peter H. Green — Writer, Architect and City Planner
A career architect and city planner. Peter found his father’s 400 World War II letters, his humorous war stories, his mother’s writings and their family’s often hilarious doings too good a tale to keep to himself, so he launched a second career as a writer. His first book recounted the hilarious antics and serious achievements of his dad’s Word War II adventure, Ben’s War with the U.S. Marines, Greenskills Press, 2014. His first novel, Crimes of Design, a Patrick MacKenna mystery, Fatal Designs (2014).and a third, Chicago’s Designs, (2021). He has published three architectural mysteries in his Patrick MacKenna mystery-thriller series and three biographical memoirs of the era, World War II to the present, including his latest, Becoming an Architect: My Voyage of Discovery (2022).
