J. W. James III was born in Youngstown, Ohio of Welsh and German heritage. After graduating from high school and a few years of college he joined the Marine Corps. Four years later with an honorable discharge, he re-located to South Florida where he began writing. He loves the ocean and astronomy, and listening to music from Rock and Roll to the classics, with Frederick Francois Chopin a favorite. He believes that, “The truth may hurt, but not as much as a lie.” And music is the ‘soul food’ of humankind.

At birth, she is more advanced than her mother at minding. Soon, a being from another galaxy similar to her enters with an advanced Cyberoid, called R-Tech. After 500 years of births, Cassandra became the leader of minding because she commands something no one else on Earth can do – Mind Read.
