Aloha! My name is James and I wrote these kids books.

Think of the Percy Jackson series but set in Hawaii, with native vs invasive species, hilarious Menehune, and really fun retelling of Hawaiian mythology!

They’re available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Paperback.

One of my favorite part about having written a series is being able to give the first book away for free.

It had been a year, so I did another giveaway this past weekend and had a stellar response.

I am highly biased and much prefer the worst candid kid’s review than the best adults have to offer. Children are my demographic.

I’m going to where they are with these stories, not vice versa. Their opinions transcribed authentically is just the best.

Mahalo to this ten year-old for his review!

Working down through the 3,000+ edits right now, almost done!

My favorite thing about being an author is paying an editor to remind me I am a trash human being.

I’ve never seen anything I needed more in my life and I was on a ventilator for 45 days during COVID

I love this! I’m from Hawaii but have been a Pats fan my whole life (my dad is a New Englander). My wife even sent me to a home game a couple of weeks ago! So I’m 100% following the peeps on this list.

I spent dozens of hours learning After Effects to make this book trailer.

I really hope you like it.

(Bluesky only allows 1 min videos so the book at the end barely stays, but I’ll post the cover below again)

A powerful moment in literature.

If you/your kids like Redwall, Percy Jackson or The Spiderwick Chronicles, I wrote this book and now it's available for pre-order on Kindle.
