ROXANNE JAMES

Roxanne’s origins have contributed to her love of writing; being of Shuswap ancestry, storytelling has traditionally been part of her roots. Born in the Cariboo to an extremely large extended family, Roxanne has ample experience from which to draw her inspiration. Her love of nature and culture are often reflected in her writing, as the two are interconnected. She has lived and worked throughout the province of British Columbia, and is an avid traveller as well. Roxanne has written three novels, a novella and numerous short stories.
