Whether it's Village, Office or Govenment, Pete sorts out the idiots so you don't have to. A prolific writer, his work spans not only comedy, but also tackles more serious subjects, as seen in his novel So Low So High. He lives in Northampton which is a bit like Southampton but without the sea.
Tiswas or Swap Shop?
I
have no idea. I’m an 80’s child so it was more Go live and CDUK, maybe a bit of
Funhouse but I think that was on in the week.
What's your latest book about?
I’ve
actually just released two diary books, one is about an expectant father who
finds himself with a pregnant girlfriend he didn’t have a month ago and the
second is the follow up which Is about a father in the first three months of
his new terrifying journey (Diary of a Hapless Father). It’s written in diary form, which is something I
always wanted to do after reading Adrian Mole all those years ago.
Sonic or Mario ?
Mario
AND sonic and the winter Olympics.
Where do you write?
Sitting
on my pet sofa. His name is Jeff.
Chorlton or the Wheelies?
I’m
lost.
Is your writing inspired by real events or does it
come from a dark place in your head?
I
think it’s a bit of both, a bit of reality and then, in some cases, there’s a
bit of my worse nightmare thrown in their too. Plus a little bit humour in the
form of ‘how funny would it be if it were happening to someone else’
Steve Coogan or Steve Davis?
Ahhhhhhhaaaaaaa!
Steve Coogan, hands down.
Physical book or e-book?
For
selling? E-book. For reading, I still prefer the paper ones, although I don’t
get the time to read these days unfortunately.
Prisoner Cell block H or H from Steps?
These
questions, Charlie…
Where can we find you?
