Autorenporträt
James was born in Windsor, England. After he left school, he studied film at a college in London, before transferring to Byron Bay for the final year of his degree. Once there, he fell in love, first with Australia, then with his future wife, and ended up staying for good. For the next few years, he dabbled in screenwriting, taking a course through UCLA and dreaming of Hollywood. But after finishing two screenplays, he realized that he'd rather write a book. Adam is that book. When he's not writing (or procrastinating), James works as a ferry deckhand in Brisbane, Queensland, where he lives with his long-suffering wife and their two cats, Molly and Huckleberry. After he moved to Byron Bay for the last year of his film degree, he fell in love with a girl and a country. Before long, that girl was his wife, and Australia was his home. James now works as a ferry deckhand in Brisbane, where he lives in a little weatherboard house with his long-suffering wife and their two cats, Molly and Huckleberry. The lines from the books of his childhood still resonate. And that's why he writes, in the hope that one day, one of his own books can affect a reader in the same way.
