When the time came that I felt the need to share my knowledge, Peter was the first person to show complete support and enthusiasm for my ability to accomplish this goal. He was my cheerleader, my seeing-eye dog and cow-prod. He kept me on track and moving in the right direction which I never would have found on my own. He kept me true to my voice. I can say with confidence that I am indeed a writer.” -Smith Banfield, Founder - Clear Space, and Author -Clear Space
