WR Peden is a versatile author with experience in various writing mediums. An OIF/OEF veteran from the United States Marine Corps, he has also served in the US Army National Guard and volunteered as a firefighter for Lebanon Rural. Beyond his professional life, Will is a dedicated family man, with one son, three daughters, and his loving wife Amanda.
Will has been writing since 2000, beginning as a teenager crafting role-playing scenarios for the electronic wrestling federations he was a part of. In 2010, he took his imagination to new heights by founding his own Graphic Design Company. His designs have gained international acclaim, seen in prominent professional wrestling companies in Australia and the globally recognized National Wrestling Alliance, where he served as Head of Marketing. Will has also collaborated with the former Indoor Football League team, the Billings Wolves, as their sole small business partner. Additionally, he has worked with former WWE/TNA wrestling star and American Ninja Warrior contestant Zach Gowen, and his commercial flyer designs have graced the back cover of Pro Wrestling Illustrated.
During his tenure with the National Wrestling Alliance, Will rekindled his passion for writing. From 2014 to 2015, he not only served as the designer, producer, and layout editor for the National Wrestling Alliance Ringside Magazine, but also contributed as an article author (Available Here). When the magazine ceased publication, Will continued to write news stories for various wrestling companies and the NWA until his departure in late 2015.
In the summer of 2016, Will began laying the groundwork for what would eventually become "Book 1 – Soldiers of ZED." Despite taking over a year to materialize, Will meticulously ensured every detail was in place for the novel's success. Since then, he has written two comic books, compiled a grayscale coloring book, and is currently working on his first romance novel, scheduled for release in September 2024.
