After a career spanning over 40 years, mostly in Information Technology, James "retired" to his favorite career - one he began as a ten-year-old, writing. From short skits presented by his brother and himself written about the intricacies of the human heart (no joke!), he graduated to poems, short stories, and weightier plays. In 2020, as he was falling asleep, a British accent asked him when he was going to tell the story of Ravynn St. John and Phoenix Rising, and a career was reborn.
