Discovering the runes in his early teens, James is an avid folklorist and historian with a particular focus on ancient pagan cultures.

He is a practising neo-pagan with an emphasis on the Northern Tradition, but likes to see that as part of a larger global discourse that spans back to Neolithic times and hopefully distantly into the future.

An artist and illustrator, James Flowerdew currently writes and paints in Edinburgh.
