About the author

James Shipway - Making stuff up since 1992.
I was born and raised in Cornwall but have spent some time in London and Plymouth where I studied music. I typically read and write anything horror, sci-fi or fantasy, the more unusual the better. My favourite book at the moment is The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August by Claire North, which was a big influence on my decision to take writing more seriously. I hope you all enjoy reading my first novel Thatcher's Tree, at least as much as I did writing it. If all goes well then I have many more stories to share.
