About James
Hello! I'm a working class writer from Southport (near Liverpool) and living in London. I've loved writing ever since I was a kid and someone bought me Brian Jacques's Redwall. Ever since then I've been writing stories of my own. I'm passionate about drama that explores our interior lives and how we make our way through the world as it throws different things at us. I used to love Martin Scorsese's work because I thought the gangster element was cool..now I love them because of how they handle questions of morality and depravity in such compelling fashion.
I also love working in production because I'm a bit of an organiser, and it feels like the centre of things on a film.
