Peter Bradbury is something of a nomad. Born in Hong Kong, he lived in Australia where he wrote his first poetry, then moved to England where he wrote his first short story. In 1996 his story ‘Up River’ was runner-up in the Stand International Short Story competition. It was subsequently published in the Canadian journal Malahat Review. He currently lives in San Francisco. His story ‘Shuttle Diplomacy’ has recently been published in Narrative Magazine.
