Peter Stevenson has written 20 posts for The London Word
Peter moved to London in the spring of 2010, gravitating downwards from 'the North' over a number of years. Having a background in science, he enjoyed dabbling in scientific writing to the point where he realised the writing part was actually what he liked the most. He has already found nothing is quite like London for allowing you to vent some creative waves, being involved in radio and bands as well. Turns out this Northerner feels really quite at home now.
