Autorenporträt

Find James and his books at www.jamesmitchelldouglas.ca!James (Jim) Douglas is a retired school teacher who lives in Enniskillen Township, Petrolia, Ontario. He lives with his wife Karen, who is also a retired teacher, as well as their youngest daughter. The couple also has four older children. Jim has always had a consuming love for the outdoors and to this day, continues to hunt, fish, trap and train hunting dogs.His first connection to writing creatively came in the 1960's when his English teacher told him he had a knack for writing. Although Jim was not a model student, the compliment always stayed with him. When he was eighteen he started to play the guitar and immediately began to write his own songs because it just seemed the natural thing to do. Over the years, other poems and writings were created.In the early 1980's, his first magazine article called "How I Train a Coon Dog" was published and when letters started coming in from all over North America, it had a very positive impact upon his life. The next article he wrote was in the late 1990's and it also was published. The 800 and some dollars he received for this one again was also a positive. Could it be true that his English teacher from long ago had been right?After retirement, he wrote the introduction of a story and read it to his friend, Wayne. The friend listened and then looked at him and said, "Great beginning. I want to hear the rest of the story. Write a book."The challenge was accepted and a few months later a novel called 'Vigliante Justice' was finished and the characters of Davie Meadows, Katrina, Barbara and Griz had been created. This book was followed up with a sequel called 'Sharpshooter: The Sins of Greed'. Jim continues to write, and more novels are on the horizon, soon to be published.As well as writing, Jim continues to train dogs, substitute teach, hunt, fish, trap and participate in the activities that the forests and streams offer up. He loves to teach others, especially his grandchildren, about the natural world he loves.
