About Him
Grew Up… under mysterious circumstances. Not much is known about James’ childhood, but something certainly turned him into a strange young man.
Living… in Pittsburgh, obtaining a degree in creative writing. Hannah Green, his best friend, happens to rent a room in Prof Grady Tripp’s house (their writing professor).
Profession… university student. Although unsure about his future, James secretly really enjoys writing – perhaps a career as a professional writer might not be too far fetched. Luckily, Professor Tripp’s editor, Terry Crabtree, has taken a real interest in James’ work.
Interests… lonesomeness, Marilyn Monroe memorabilia, antique guns, writing fiction.
Relationship Status… single. James has been a little too inside his head for a relationship but is starting discover his sexuality.
Challenge… come out of his shell. Rather than becoming an extrovert, James merely seeks to develop healthy relationships with the people surrounding him – for far too long James has had trouble relating to people in any kind of way.
Personality… quiet, gloomy, mysterious, lost soul.
