Author Information

Once Aisling was old enough to be on her own, she looked around her Cuban surroundings and saw little hope for a rich and rewarding life. Following in the path of many, she decided to move to Miami. She quickly discovered that the promise of a better life was not guaranteed, and like many young women who came before her, the green and glitter of the sex industry beckoned. Being of an open mind with a healthy attitude towards sex, Aisling cautiously travelled down this worn path to become an exotic dancer. She quickly found that men controlled much of the industry and were eager to manipulate the women for their own gain. Rising above misogyny and greed, Aisling was able to avoid many of the pitfalls of the profession by staying true to herself. Her experiences in the industry inspired her to grow into an unstoppable force and inspired her to write. James honed his nautical skills racing sailboats on the waters of the great lakes, but now he finds the salty seas of the Caribbean better suiting his taste. A carpenter by trade, James is also a storyteller, author, and traveler, yet truth be known, flyfishing is his chase. Often presumed to be shy or aloof, James listens more that he speaks, and it is this refreshing trait that has allowed for deeper insights into many different worlds on his many adventures. Maintaining a dynamic lifestyle including healthy eating, vigorous exercise, and spirited sex, his next piece to be put to pen and paper is always right around the corner. Preferring solo travel off the beaten path, James finds peace for his active imagination in the sanctums of nature. But that does not means he totally avoids the bussel of city life, for it is there, he has the ability to engage people of all cultures and various mores. Many of his stories come from personal experiences, but not all. His writings are peppered with the chapters in the life of others and none more profound than those of his friend and coauthor, Aisling. The two authors met by chance on a beach in Cuba. James went there to fish, experience some fine rum and cigars, all the while immersing himself in a secretive country, off limits for so long. Aisling was there to visit friends and family, searching to find some much-needed inspiration for the book she was beginning to write. Under a tiki hut on a warm December day, their pathes crossed for the first time. The gap in their ages first posed as a barrier, but polite conversation led to a revelation of sorts. Both were struggling for traction in what they each perceived were stories gone stale. James speaks a little Spanish but fortunately, Aisling is fluid in English, and as the rum flowed, the sun beat down, and a friendship was kindled. James was instantly enthralled by her life's story, and once stateside, their alliance continued as did their commitment to help each other craft better pieces. It was during one of their discussions that James broached the idea of melding their two books, it was something Aisling was thinking about as well. Age no longer seemed to be a barrier, but language certainly was since Aisling wrote in Spanish and Google translate could only go so far. Patience and stubbornness ruled the day, and after years of collaboration the first book in the Avanti Chronicles is now available in print. Two sequels are in the works with one nearly completed. The fantastical story full of pirates, amazing men and women, rich adventures, and unbound sex await the reader in this thoughtfully assembled series.
