Jim Sanders

HELLO. I’M JAMES “JIM” SANDERS. I WAS BORN IN HILLS CHAPEL, MISSISSIPPI, A BIT OVER SEVENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO. I’VE HAD AN ESPECIALLY BLESSED LIFE. WHILE IN THE MILITARY, I WAS PRIVILEGED TO VISIT FIVE OF OUR SEVEN CONTINENTS. AFTER THE MILITARY, I EMBARKED ON A FORTY YEAR CAREER IN BUILDING.

DURING MOST OF THAT TIME, I BUILT OR REMODELED

RETAIL STORES. THAT TOOK ME ALL OVER THE UNITED

STATES AND INTO MEXICO AND CANADA. THE ONLY

STATES I MISSED WERE IDAHO, MONTANA AND

ALASKA. FINALLY, MY EYE SIGHT BEGAN TO FAIL ME, SO I

HAD TO RETIRE. IT DIDN’T TAKE TOO LONG TO REALIZE

THAT SITTING IN A RECLINER WAS NO FUN AT ALL. SO,

WITH THE HELP OF THE VETERANS ADMINISTRATION

AND A LOTS OF THEIR FANTASTIC TOOLS FOR THE

VISUALLY IMPAIRED, I LEARNED TO TYPE AND

EMBARKED ON MY PRESENT PASSION – WRITING. SO

FAR, I HAVE WRITTEN SOME TWENTY-FIVE BOOKS AND

NEAR TWO HUNDRED SHORT STORIES. THEY CROSS THE

LINE INTO NEARLY EVERY GENRE IMAGINABLE. I WILL

SIT DOWN AT THE KEYBOARD PLUCKING WITH

ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE WHAT THE STORY IS GOING TO

END UP BEING. IT MIGHT BE AN OLD WEST COWBOY

STORY – OR A MODERN DAY DETECTIVE NOVEL. SOME

GET INTO INTERGALACTIC TRAVEL AS WELL AS

SEAFARING STORIES OF THE TALL SAILING SHIPS. LATER

THIS YEAR,I INTEND TO RELEASE “THE LORILAR”, A

COLLECTION OF FAIRY TALES. THERE ARE TALES OF

MERRY OLD ENGLAND AND THE HIGHWAYMEN, AS

WELL AS WAR STORIES. I TRY TO WIND MY TALES

AROUND PLACES OR PEOPLE I HAVE SEEN OR KNOWN.

AND I TRY TO RESEARCH AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE TO

MAKE MY STORIES SEEM AS REALISTIC AS POSSIBLE. I

HAVE DONATED TO THE LIBRARY, COPIES OF MY BOOKS

THAT ARE IN PRINT. AND AS I PUBLISH MORE, THEY

WILL ALSO BE AVAILABLE. PICK ONE UP AND READ A

FEW PAGES. IF YOU LIKE IT, CHECK IT OUT AND READ

THE WHOLE THING. IF YOU ENJOY READING MY BOOKS

EVEN PARTIALLY AS MUCH AS I ENJOY WRITING THEM,

MY EFFORTS ARE A BLAZING SUCCESS! BY THE WAY,

THEY ARE ALL AVAILABLE ON AMAZON, BARNES AND

NOBLE, APPLE BOOKS AND OTHER VENUES. THANK

YOU. JAMES “JIM” SANDERS
