The James Family Chronicles

Basically a bunch of stories about domestic mayhem.

 

Kids. Dogs. Work. Life... and somehow, we’re still laughing.
They say you can’t have it all at once.

Well, someone forgot to tell my life.

Chaos. Comedy. Completely relatable.

The Ship's Log

Featuring a policeman, a pirate, a Rottweiler and a very tired mum...

The James Family Chronicles began the same way most of my stories do: somewhere between a spilled milk bottle, a Rottweiler wearing a helmet, and me wondering why the children are suddenly quiet.
 
It’s a collection of real moments from our chaotic crew: Nathaniel, Westley, an oversized dog with zero spatial awareness, the Nan who holds the universe together, and me, doing my best to stay upright while life throws chippies and curveballs at the same time.
​
These are the kind of stories you tell your friends with a laugh and a sigh. The moments that make you go:
“Is this normal?”
and
“At least it’s not just me!”
​
Because it isn’t just you.

Family life is wild, unpredictable, hilarious, exhausting, heart-thumping, and best held together with snacks and sarcasm.

The Policeman, the Pirate and the Watchtower

A sunny bike ride along the estuary turns into a full-scale adventure when Commander Westley leads a daring watchtower defence, paints the world’s most questionable crab, and discovers that Crab Fest’s greatest treasure is, in fact, a mountain of chippies.

The Dread Pirate Roberts

When you name your son after the Dread Pirate Roberts, you should not be surprised when a casual beach trip becomes a pirate expedition involving caves, a crow’s nest, and one deeply vengeful crab.

Couch Please, Mum

A masterclass in manipulation, starring a classic 90's movie and a rogue kernel of popcorn. A peaceful evening spirals into chaos when Westley negotiates couch privileges, provides constant commentary, and stages a popcorn-in-the-nose emergency worthy of its own action scene.
