  James Cooper started teaching at Tabor in 2008 and has served as Senior Lecturer since 2011 and Creative Writing Coordinator since 2015. He is drawn to his role by a love of the written word and a sense of calling to contribute to a much needed quality Christian tertiary education in Australia. Central to James’ philosophy of education is his own love of learning and the way study continually affords new opportunities to enlarge his vision of my work and self-understanding. Helping students gain a similar appreciation for the world-changing potential of the writing arts is an exciting challenge. James has been married since the turn of the century and is blessed with a wife of uncommon understanding, plus two deep-thinking, playful and energetic sons. He has published numerous poems and short stories locally and overseas and edited numerous anthologies. He is one of the founding committee members for Stories of Life and is Senior Editor at inScribe Journal of Creative Writing. Show less
