Hi! I'm James. I write funny books for kids. I am a writer, filmmaker, performer, pole-vaulter, wizard and exaggerator and I live in Middlesbrough. I only went and won the New Writing North and Hachette Children's Novel Award for my first book The Unbelievable Biscuit Factory! I know! I'm as surprised as you, but here we are. I love comedy. I've spent my time making silly short films, comedy sketches and animations, sometimes just for fun, sometimes for places like the BBC and Channel 4. I've also run comedy nights in Middlesbrough, and I often perform live comedy with my friends. I can't stop. I've tried. I am a mentor and workshop leader for Writers' Block North East, a Teesside creative writing and development service. My super powers include time travel (forwards), making the most excellent mashed potato and inventing new words like an absolute blambletruff.
