Sidney St. James began writing his first novel, In the Face of Adversity in the spring of 1995. It was the beginning of four books in his Faith Chronicles Series following a family from Oldenburg, Germany traveling to Texas in 1845 and face many adversities along the way to establish a new life in a new country, TEXAS. His second in the series was The Rose of Brays Bayou, a true story written from the memoirs of Dilue Rose Harris of the Runaway Scrape in Texas. His third in the series is Faith – Seventy Times Seven, a true story about the first ordained woman minister in the State of Louisiana and how she found forgiveness for twenty years from an abusive and alcoholic husband. His fourth in the series, Seeing the Power of God, is a story about a young man who fell from the sky fully grown and has trouble finding Christianity when the only book he has ever read is one based on Hinduism. Thirty-six more novels follow his first series in Science Fiction, Creative Nonfiction, Romance Suspense and Thrillers, and Religious genres.
He also loves to play matchmaker in his paranormal romances and young adult series, transporting readers to a place where the bold heroes have endearing flaws, the women are smarter than they lead on, the land is lush and untamed, and chivalry is alive and well.
He lives near Sun City in Georgetown, Texas with his wife Barbara and a cat named “Fluffy” and he can occasionally be found wearing a tie… and I do mean “occasionally.” His latest release “LET ME DRIVE” is his 38th novel.

In the heart of Texas, nestled within the expansive plains and under the vast, azure skies, lies the quaint town of Eagle Lake. It was here, amid the gentle hum of small-town life and the tranquil beauty of the surrounding nature, that Sidney St. James' story unfolds.
Sidney's educational journey began at the local kindergarten, a small, welcoming building, Mrs. Kveton's Kindergarten, where he first encountered the ABCs and 123s and, more importantly, forged his initial friendships.
Amidst the academic pursuits and extracurricular activities, Sidney was also an athlete. Eagle Lake High was known for its competitive spirit, and Sidney was a key player on the football and baseball teams. The journey to the state championships was a thrilling adventure, filled with hard-fought victories and the inevitable setbacks, each a lesson in resilience and teamwork.
Within the high school's modest science lab walls, Sidney and his friends, Russell, Donnie, and Danny, embarked on their most ambitious project yet—a time machine. Fueled by youthful optimism and the boundless possibilities of science, they worked tirelessly, poring over textbooks, experimenting with various theories and technologies, and engaging in spirited debates about the ethics and implications of time travel.
Their efforts unexpectedly bore fruit--a time machine, a patchwork of wires, metal, and sheer willpower, became a reality. Their first journey took them back to a pivotal moment in American history—the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963.
The next journey was even more audacious. Propelled by a desire to glimpse the future of humanity, the crew of seniors set the machine's dials to one hundred years ahead, but a malfunction sent them 8,000 years ahead. What they found was beyond their wildest imaginations—Earth, or what was left of it, was inhabited by aliens.
Amidst these extraordinary adventures, Sidney's heart belonged to Eagle Lake, the life he knew, and the people he cherished. Central to this was his relationship with his childhood sweetheart, a bond that had blossomed from innocent playground companionship to a deep, enduring love. She was his anchor, a reminder of every day's beauty, dreams, and hopes that didn't require time travel to pursue.
However, this idyllic romance was threatened by the machinations of Johnny Masters, a figure shadowed by jealousy and spite. Once a friend, Johnny had turned into a saboteur, driven by a desire to undermine Sidney at every turn. The climax of this rivalry came when Johnny attempted to sabotage the time machine, an act that could have erased Sidney's very existence and all the moments he cherished.
The confrontation between Sidney and Johnny was a battle of wits and wills and a test of character. It was a defining moment for Sidney, a realization that the accurate measure of a person lies not in their successes or the marvels they achieve but in their ability to face adversity, protect what is dear to them, and persevere with integrity.
As Sidney stood on the brink of graduation, the future sprawling before him like an uncharted map, he understood that his journey through time had imparted lessons far beyond the realms of science. It had taught him about the fragility of life, the interconnectedness of history, and the enduring power of love and friendship.
With its serene landscapes and the gentle rhythms of small-town life, Eagle Lake had nurtured a son who had ventured through the corridors of time, only to find that the most profound adventures were those that took place in the heart. Sidney St. James, a boy from a humble town, had looked into the past and the future only to realize that the present, with all its simplicity and complexity, was where life's true magic lay.
