Nick James grew up in the small island town of Anacortes, Washington. He graduated from Western Washington University and currently works as a substitute teacher in Bellingham. Inspired by the big drama and dialogue of comic books and graphic novels by Brian K. Vaughan and Brian Michael Bendis, James began writing at a young age. His love of fast-paced storytelling led to his debut, Skyship Academy: The Pearl Wars, an action-packed science fiction novel for young adults.
