Hello! My name is Andrea James.
Hello! My name is Andrea James. I am a [[writer]] and [[activist]] based in [[Los Angeles]].

I edit on other Wikimedia projects under the user name Jokestress, a nickname I have used since going online in the 1990s. I spent many years writing jokes for a living, hence the name. I made a few edits here as [[User:Jokestress]] before I was asked to change my account to my first name and last initial.

I have read most religious texts, and I have read the [[New Testament]] in the original [[koine Greek]]. I majored in Latin and Greek in college. I recommend ''[[Strong's Concordance]]'' by Dr. [[James Strong]] (1822–1894) for anyone interested in scholarly study of the Bible. If you are a student of Greek, I recommend reading the [[Book of Acts]] in ''koine'', as the style is very straightforward.

I did my graduate work at the [[University of Chicago]], specializing in 18th-century British diaries and satire. Some of my favorite writers from that period include [[Alexander Pope]], [[Jonathan Swift]], [[Henry Fielding]], [[James Boswell]], and [[Samuel Johnson]]. I consider Johnson the most important literary figure in the English language. After grad school, I worked in [[advertising]] for many years. I now work in film and television as a writer, producer, and director.
I do not plan to edit here often. I joined because now and then I see a case of egregious abuse of this wiki. My plan is to mention it to Conservapedia editors I respect from my time working on Wikipedia. I'll let them handle things from there out.
