Jim Larsen is an astute people watcher. He doesn’t just watch people, he studies them. He gets inside their heads and sees the world through their eyes. He likes to know why people do the things they do, why what’s important to them is so important, and what motivates, excites, and disgusts them.

This knack for people watching has benefited Jim as a writer in many ways. It has allowed him to go deep into character motivations and actions while writing this volume of Spoony Chronicles and more. It has also helped shaped his philosophies which he shares in his books, The Pieces of You Tarot, What’s Tarot Got To Do With It? and The Double Oh Fool Guide to Tarot Mastery.

Jim was born in California, raised in Virginia, and currently lives on the Big Island of Hawaii. He has traveled extensively overseas to teach English as a Foreign Language, has been a Middle School ELA and Special Education teacher, has worked in television broadcasting and Government Information Management.

Jim has performed at numerous comedy open mics, poetry open mics, has performed with an Improv comedy troupe in the Washington DC area, and is the creator of numerous videos on YouTube. Jim is probably best known as the
writer and director of the cult classic film for Troma Entertainment, Buttcrack and as the creator of Nigel the Psychopath.
