About the Founder
Chris Peters is the founder, editor, and one-man newsroom behind The Stillwegian – a local online news service covering Stillwater, Oklahoma, and Payne County with a focus on local government, community issues, and storytelling that actually matters to everyday people.
Chris didn’t come to journalism through the traditional route—he’s a tech nerd at heart who loves Apple gear, bikes, and finding smart ways to tell real stories. His approach to local news is refreshingly no-nonsense: serve the community with accurate, unbiased reporting, skip the fluff, and make the experience as digital-first and reader-friendly as possible.
