BACKGROUND

Born in Bury St. Edmunds, England.

James travelled the world extensively. He was shot at in India, climbed Pyramids in Egypt and mountains in the Himalayas, was police-detained in Hawaii, broke his neck in Australia, swam with beavers in Canada as well as all the usual stuff like hypothermia, muggings, desert breakdowns, getting lost, etc...

James has worked as a landscaper, designer, teacher, estate agent, researcher, a PA and a journalist among other things and he's easily distracted by the sound of leather on willow. (That’s cricket, btw!)

James lived between the Yorkshire Dales and the Yorkshire Moors with his young family. It inspired him to use these beautiful areas as the location for his writing. 

In 2013 James rowed the English Channel and the 21 tidal miles of the Thames for MND and Breakthrough Breast cancer.

 James retains a childhood passion of making dens, pitching fires, star gazing and talking nonsense.

Writing Schedule 2022-23 

James is currently working on a hatful of projects.

Eden Chronicles has seen a major revamp, “Time Stamp” is now available, which is a contemporary, adult, romantic time-travel thriller.

Also coming in March 2023, is a personal journey of healing in “The Healing Pond”. This story goes through the making of my natural pool where everything, including me, decided to fall apart. It’s quite a journey.

In the pipeline are a couple of terrific screenplays, one involving cricket, a children’s series about an orphaned elephant, and a couple of other wonderful stories.

James is un-agented at the current time…
