About Me

James D. Maxon (1977-Present) was born at Elmendorf Air Force Base in Anchorage, Alaska. His parents were divorced when he was just three-years-old. Raised in a strictly female household, James grew up in the midst of mental illness and depression. He, himself, struggled in school due to a learning disability.

Without a positive male role model, James learned how difficult it can be for children to realize their true potential. Having acquired a love for fantasy at a young age, he began to write stories of his own, providing children and teens with messages of faith, hope, and insight.

Overcoming his disability, James graduated college with a 4.0 GPA. He deepened his connection to the creative world by following a career in design. He now lives with his wife and daughter in a suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and spends much of his free time applying his imagination to the real world.

Interests
I like reading, writing, gaming, listening to music, and watching anime. I have written two books and am soon to release a third. My genre of choice is speculative fiction (mainly fantasy and SF). I read both traditional novels as well as graphic novels (manga in particular) and review many of them at booksforyouth.com. My current favorite game to play is Skyrim with StarCraft II a close second.
