Peter joined the Pink Paper in February 2008. An English graduate, he began his career as a freelance journalist before becoming Editor of an official city guide for Manchester in 2004. Eighteen months later he relocated to London where he joined Madonna’s UK press company as the firm’s sole Staff Writer - remaining there for three years. Originally from Liverpool, he is – alas – not a blood relative of Sonia, Holly Johnson or The Beatles, but has been to Brookside Close.

Fernando is our Mac-maniac. He divides his time between maintaining our Macs and being our designer. He led the Pink Paper redesign into newspaper, and if you don’t like the design of this website, you should blame him too. When his fingers are away from the keyboard, you can find him listening to Medieval music or reading books about astronomy and theoretical physics. Born and bred Spanish, he has a degree in philosophy and theology, speaks five languages and used to be a monk.

Jeni joined the Pink Paper in June 2006, after graduating in journalism and while also working as communications officer for the Lesbian and Gay Foundation in Manchester. She spent two successful years providing the paper with up-to-the-minute news from around the North West but has now moved on to be the title’s sports correspondent. Originally from Blackpool but now living in Manchester with a short stint in London in 2002 you could say that Jeni has been around a bit... but in a good way of course!

He joined the Pink Paper team in the summer of 2005 when he became design and production manager for MPG’s publishing portfolio.

Just like his birth sign, Gemini, Haydn claims to be one of twins – yet thank god, he admits, there is only one of him! When he started out as a journalist pens had hardly been invented let alone thoughts of PCs or the internet. He’s glad they have done away with sending copy by pigeon as catching them proved quite difficult and often messy! Why a twin? Haydn, under a different name (his middle name) runs a national gay monthly magazine for men – simply far too rude to mention here. He has been writing for Pink Paper since its re-launch as a newspaper. He’s also written a top-selling book.

After studying graphic design at Great Yarmouth College of Art, Ricky moved to London where he started working as a freelance cartoonist for DC Thompson and IPC on their line of children’s comics. Frustrated with having to illustrate other peoples scripts (and drawing endless plates of bangers and mash), he started developing his own characters and storylines, including the long running Up Queer Street which first appeared in the Pink Paper in 1999. Another comic creation Albion Hospital can be found regularly in the pages of plusVE magazine and over the years his cartoons have appeared in books, advertising and on numerous greetings cards. As well as his humour work Ricky also produces fine art illustrations and photographic images and more recently medical diagrams for various pharmaceutical companies. Ricky’s proud to say he’s never done a proper days work in his life and doesn’t own any Kylie Minogue CDs.
