I started as a freelance journalist sometime in 2002. I'm still writing articles for newspapers and magazines, and have self-published many non fiction books. I published my first novel, "The Salome Effect," in 2012 and am now working on my second. "Salome" is a a cross-genre story (noir/police procedural) about a man suffering Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and finding his way back to a more normal life. The as-yet-untitled next work is a historical novel set in 17th century Italy. You can follow my progress, check out my blog, or read my articles at my web site, jamessajo.com.
