James Smith is an American author and a student of philosophy at Hillsdale online college, where his academic journey is shaped by a deep study of ancient wisdom and its enduring relevance to modern life. Blending philosophical inquiry with storytelling, James creates works that challenge readers to explore timeless ideas through compelling narratives. As an emerging author, James continues to explore the intersection of classical philosophy and contemporary life. James’s works, both fiction and non-fiction, reflect his ongoing engagement with classical thought. He is particularly drawn to Stoic philosophers such as Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus, whose teachings have provided a framework for resilience, ethical reflection, and personal growth. His writing encourages readers to question assumptions, confront complexity, and take responsibility for the world they shape. James draws from this inspiration and translates it into his fictional stories as readers grow attached to his characters while navigating the dilemma of choice and the balance morality and virtue. Born and raised in Salem, Oregon, James has always been fascinated by the power of ideas. His books are a testament to that journey. Today, James continues to write and study philosophy at Hillsdale College, committed to the lifelong pursuit of truth, wisdom, and civic virtue. His work bridges ancient insight with modern urgency, inspiring others to seek clarity, courage, and meaning.
