About meMatthew Peterson is an award-winning writer, radio show host for VoiceAmerica, second degree black belt in karate, Eagle scout, computer programmer, and former missionary. He also has uncanny luck with firsts, from getting accepted to the first and only university he applied to (Brigham Young University), becoming the Director of Information Technologies from his first and only job interview after graduating with a business management degree, and even marrying the first woman he dated in college. He wanted twins, and, miraculously, his first two children were red-headed twins. He won first place in the first writing contest he entered, and the first publisher he sent his book to bought the rights to publish it. He hopes his luck with firsts will continue on with his debut novel, Paraworld Zero.

Update: Paraworld Zero hit two bestseller lists and placed in over a dozen contests.

Matthew has won or received honorable mentions in several writing contests including Writers Digest (twice), Writers Weekly, and L. Ron Hubbard's Writers of the Future (twice). He currently lives in Arizona with his wife, five boys, and a giant African tortoise.
