Andy Barrow is a New York–based writer whose debut novel, Peter in Progress, draws inspiration from his own later-in-life gay awakening. When he’s not writing, Andy is likely perfecting his backhand, chasing his next cold brew, or making up for lost time on the dance floor—preferably with ‘90s icons (Crystal, CeCe, Whitney…) on rotation. While embracing life as a gay man and author, Andy somehow manages to maintain a day job; he’s a proud educator who recently earned a doctorate in curriculum, instruction, and innovation.
