L T James
Based in Buckinghamshire, England
L T James is a folklorist and former county archivist who has spent the better part of three decades collecting local ghost stories from pub regulars, station masters, and parish historians across the British Isles.
His work for CWMK draws on field notebooks, reading-room transcriptions, and long correspondences with the sort of people who still remember what their grandparents refused to talk about. He lives in a crooked cottage in North Buckinghamshire with more books than shelving.
When he isn't writing, he lectures on oral tradition at small historical societies and walks the railway lines that no longer exist.
