edit data

James Berryman was born and raised in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, where he still lives. 'A Sting in the Tale' was his first book, since then he has gone on to convert the many stories in this book into TV scripts (available in ebook format - 'Three Sumner Tales').

Educated at St Cuthbert's Grammar School, where he first met Sting, he has had many jobs, including being a racecourse bookie. Turning his latent writing talent to other titles has broadened the scope of his writing genre.

James has a wry sense of humour and in his current and forthcoming titles, it is particularly to the fore. His slap-stick humour is sure to be picked up on and is sure to have many creased over in laughter as they read his works. ...more

Quotes by James Berryman (?)

“As we walked to Fr Walsh’s office, Sting asked me what I thought our punishment might be. I had just been beaten for the missing page fiasco, and he told me, straight-faced, that his last thrashing was because his dad was a milkman.”
― James Berryman

“In the school suggestion box, brought out at times, Sting put in a scrap of notepaper advising the authorities to ban the ‘slipper’, advising everyone to wrap rags around their feet.”

“Caning was a way of life at the school, and the boy, Sting and myself, even at an early age, had our fair share of thrashings.”

James Berryman is a writer. Okay, there are millions of writers in the world, but in the case of James ... he is a comic genius in waiting. Whenever I am in need of a pick-me-up or a belly laugh then all I have to do is read some of Jim's books, they never fail to have me laughing like a demented hyena. Indeed, a rare talent and a humble man.
