James has a special affinity for music, technology, and human interests.  As a boy going to church, he enjoyed singing songs and began playing guitar for youth events.  As his creativity developed he cultivated this passion with song-writing and playing in bands with friends.  Although he rarely plays music now, he still finds time to frequent concerts, shows, and seeks new artists to add to his eclectic collection of music.

Throughout his early college years James was involved in theater improvising scenes and writing stories.  He has continued to develop creative stories both for entertainment and personal interests.  Some of the topics he writes about are travel, technology, science fiction, and personal narratives.
