My name is Peter, and this is my Diary, back from internet limbo. Just a bloke in his late forties who's divorced with three awesome kids that I'm super proud of. I'm a writer, so entries could be fast and furious when the fingers are in a mood. I write comic books, novels, and poetry... so there should be no shortage of material here. I have been a member of Open Diary since June of 2000, and am a lifetime member. I'm glad to be back... and am happy to see OD is back as well.

Catch you on the flip side,

Peter
