About the author
Born into a family of nine children; Amazon Best Selling Author James Paris, was soon thrown into the deep end of providing 'value for money' for his parents by growing vegetables - along with keeping chickens, geese, turkeys and everything else associated with a small farm.
He is a great enthusiast of Raised Bed gardening, and other ideas for growing organic vegetables in limited spaces including Straw Bales, and containers of all shapes and sizes!
A builder/joiner to trade, James also studied for the ministry through Bible College in England,and has been involved in "Christian things" for many years.
Hobbies include, gardening, fly fishing, playing guitar, and D.I.Y. Oh and of course,...writing!
Writing has become his main passion these days,and he especially loves to write from his own experiences, that includes anything from gardening to building to Bible studies - The 'Spotlight on the Prophets' series, and The Bible Brief, a Bible Summary / study book, being two examples of the latter books.
