What are you doing in your spare time? Your evenings? Your weekends? Even your daily commute?

Are you chilling on the couch? Are you browsing social channels on your phone?

Imagine what you could achieve if you used these hours creatively…

Children’s book author James Russell was writing books on his daily commute – his kid’s pressure to have story updates every evening ensured he was prolific enough to have a full story or 2, and when he was made redundant 18 months ago, went all in.

5 books later, with a NZ best-seller, & his books being published internationally, James has found his calling!
