- Dad of two
Hi, I’m James! I’m a proud father of two wonderful boys and the social media marketing manager for Epic Journeys Publishing. For years, my work took me around the world and far from home, and I missed many special moments with my family. When the opportunity with Epic Journeys came along, I chose to work from home and stay close to the people who matter most. Time with my family is my greatest blessing, and I treasure every moment of it.

Writing from Japan
Isana
- Writer
- Kindle author
- Editor
I'm a writer and Kindle author based in Japan. My work revolves around words, from writing and editing to helping others bring their books to life. When I'm not working, you'll often find me tending to my garden or spending time with my affectionate little lovebird and my 28-year-old turtle.
I love Japan's nature, changing seasons, and rich cultural traditions. One of my biggest dreams is to travel across Japan in a campervan with my family and pets, writing stories inspired by the places we visit and the people we meet.
I've always been drawn to quiet stories with deeper meanings. The Little House by Virginia Lee Burton has stayed with me since childhood, and The Important Book by Margaret Wise Brown is another favourite. Even now, whenever I feel I've lost sight of what truly matters, these are the books I want to open again.
- Based in Japan, loves its seasons and traditions
- Shares her home with a lovebird and a 28-year-old turtle
- Dreams of a campervan trip across Japan
Favourite Epic Journeys book
A Family's Journey Across Japan
My favourite Epic Journeys book? A Family's Journey Across Japan, the very first book I wrote for Epic Journeys Publishing! Through its short stories, I wanted to capture the beauty of Japan's seasons, everyday life, cultural traditions, and the little emotions that make us human. I hope readers will discover not only the Japanese language, but also a little of the heart of Japan along the way.
