I have been writing prose and verse for well over 40 years, but it was only in the late 1990s that I finally mastered the craft of storytelling. Oh, my 17 years as an editorial assistant/proofreader had much to do with helping me to master the mechanics, and to develop a good inner ear, and while I kept rewriting and reworking stories in all of that time, I believe a combination of reading the classics, reading modern authors, and repeatedly watching successful movies was what got me to finally succeed as a storyteller. My novel "Scorpion" published in 2000 by Trafford was truly the first good story I wrote, while I do believe that I have succeeded in adapting my other efforts, so that what you find under my name, James R.

The newer and much improved version of that is "Towers", while it is a good promoter of my philosophy on acceptance.
