About James

I am a writer based in London but originally from the South West UK. I am a playwright by nature and TV writer by self-nurture. My published writing has been described as ‘domestic-dystopia’ - high concept explored through interpersonal relationships. I also enjoy adapting and collaborating and, if asked to do so, am just as likely to write a goofy youth theatre production as I am a TV pilot.
