Lotus James fills her stories with romance, danger, and threatening events. Her mission is to weave stories that allow the reader to experience emotional peaks and valleys through her characters instead of real life. Lotus loves to travel and explore new locales where her mind is busy gathering ideas and information and constructing fictional scenarios in that setting. She states writing is a necessary component in her life, much like breathing. Her mind inhales images, feelings, smells, sounds and history and must somehow exhale them into existence.
