James W. Nelson


Biography

James W. Nelson was born in a little farmhouse on the prairie in eastern North Dakota in 1944. Some doctors made house calls back in those days. He was living in that same house on the land originally homesteaded by his great grandfather, when a savage tornado hit in 1955 and destroyed everything. They rebuilt and his family remained on that land until the early 1970s when diversified farming began changing to industrial agribusiness (not necessarily a good thing.) James spent four years in the US Navy, worked many jobs and finally has settled on a few acres of land exactly two and one half miles straight west of the original farmstead, ironically likely the very spot where the 1955 tornado first struck, which sometimes gives him a spooky feeling.
He has written 6 novels, 2 collections of short stories, his autobiography, and presently is working on his 7th novel plus a nonfiction of more memoirs and opinion.
