Born and raised in coastal Australia, James wasn't always destined to be a writer. A self-confessed movie buff, he was going to be an actor. Unfortunately, James couldn't act. Fortunately, he figured this out at a young age and quickly turned his sights on writing instead.
Believe it or not, James has written over 100 novels, although you'd be forgiven for not knowing it. As a ghostwriter, his is the name that doesn't appear on the front covers of those bad boy romances and cozy mystery novels that you love so much. But for every erotic scene written or whacky twist concocted, James harbored a dream to one day write and publish under his own name.
Fantasy is James' passion. His first series, Harlem's Odyssey was a comic / fantasy series that was written for a bit of fun and to combine his love of the genre with his sense of humor (heavily inspired by Monty Python et el).
His current series, Kings of the Republic, is a far more serious work. It takes his love of history (Ancient Rome, specifically) and combines it with his passion for epic fantasy. It is a must-read and he hopes it will have a lasting impact on the fantasy landscape
