About

Peyton H. Roberts, M.A., is a fiction and nonfiction author who writes about love that goes the distance. Her work has appeared in The New York Times, Modern Love Podcast, Newsweek and numerous other publications. She holds a Master’s in Communication and is the recipient of the Col. Darron L. Wright Memorial Writing Award for creative nonfiction.

Peyton’s newest release My Dearest Bea (Anchor Line Press, 2024) is an intimate collection of love letters her grandfather wrote to her grandmother aboard the USS Midway in the months following their wedding day. The book is for sale in the USS Midway Museum’s gift shop, returning her grandfather’s letters back to the ship where he originally wrote them. Her social impact novel, Beneath the Seams (Scrivenings Press, 2021), tells the story of a dressmaker who gets tangled up in the dark side of the fashion industry. The book was an Amazon #1 new release, selected as book club picks by Military Families Magazine and Kitabe Club, a literary nonprofit in India.

In addition to writer, Peyton’s other roles include communications professional, church volunteer, seasoned Navy spouse, and (best of all) mother of two. She enjoys spending time in the sunshine with her family, especially fishing for dinner and boogie boarding at the beach on hot summer days.
