Meet James, Author of Wasted Potential

stay-evil

Tell us a little about yourself.
I am a 27-year-old writer, musician and artist from Washington DC who’s been engaging in those crafts ever since childhood. I love cats, vegan junk food and tasteless adolescent humor. I’m chronically restless and insatiably curious, and this gnawing mental hunger is what provoked me to create Wasted Potential.

Who or what are your influences?
Neil Young, 80′s punk, 90′s indie, 90′s cartoon duos, William Burroughs, Joan Didion, pessimistic sociological assessments, outsider art, the impending end of civilization, Zen meditation, etc; etc; etc.

What subjects do you touch upon in your work?
Personal experience, observations of unrest and alienation, and being able to laugh it all off at the end of the day.

What is your most recent work?
Issue #1 of Wasted Potential.

What are you looking forward to most at the fest?
Meeting awesome people and checking out their awesome work!
