Inspirations

Jim’s prose is a character driven exploration of homogeneous American life and pop culture. Sometimes funny, sometimes tragic, his stories work hard to develop a close bond—a relationship—between the reader and his cast. He draws inspiration from his literary heroes—ranging from Virginia Woolf, Fitzgerald and West to Mailer, Vonnegut and DeLillo to contemporary writers such as A.M. Holmes, T.C. Boyle, John Irving, and Sam Lipsyte—all of which have their own unique voice entrenched in the American life.
