About

my name is peter bradley. i’m a queer, mediocre midwestern poet. my pronouns are they/them.

writing has been a coping mechanism for me since 2006. it’s been a way for me to document some of my struggles with mental illness. it’s been a way for me to uncover repressed memories and move past some of my own trauma. it’s taught me to learn from my mistakes. large amounts of therapy have probably had a more positive impact.  

over the years, being a writer has helped me grow. both as a person and an artist. 

and although i truly hope you can’t relate to most of what i write, i hope my words can have some impact on you.
