Cassius James was born in the north region of Wales in October 1974. He always felt lucky to be blessed with the tongue of English language. From an early age, his eldest sister, Nicole, used to read the Narnia books to him. He was always fascinated by books and enjoyed reading.

Mr James’s grandma used to buy books for him, such as Hound of the Baskervilles, The Pit, and The Pendulum, as well as poetry. It is something that developed into a fascination and passion for words. He found the books evocative, emotive, and wonderful. Mr James’s infused imagination and passion for reading and writing begun at the early age of five.

As he grew older, Mr James developed curiosity about various literary festivals, and attended such, as well as other literary events around the country, including the Edenborough festival in 2012.

Over the last 10 years, Mr James has written numerous anthologies, handwritten five novels, and about 4000 poems over the last 15 years.

Whisper me truths that seldom know,

And capture tears that come and flow.

Tell me all that comes to you,

When banished within all lost not true.

Honour me now with wide eyed game,

And tell me with promise you’ll see me again.

Wonder at loss how it thieves the time,

When we had all and you were mine.

Never lose that chain you tore away,

And give him our memory in false play.

Never be weak next to the stone,

With tears remember when I was your own.
