James Lewis Huss began his writing career at the University of South Carolina, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature. He then earned his Master of Arts in English at Northwestern State University in Louisiana and has taught English Literature and Language in the USA, China, Bolivia, and Taiwan, where he oversaw the publication of his school’s first literary journal.

James primarily considers himself a poet, but he is also a novelist and a playwright. His first novel was published in 2016, and in 2020 he created a new literary genre—the Mock Renaissance Tragedy. After coining the term Post Pandemic Renaissance, James co-founded the Post Pandemic Renaissance Theatre Company, a Taiwan-based theater group dedicated to developing and producing his plays.

James currently teaches English literature in Washington, DC."
