In 1977 he contributed three of the major articles to The Visual Encyclopedia of Science Fiction edited by Brian Ash (Pan Books, 1977 in paperback, Triune Books, 1978 in hardcover). James was a regular contributor of articles, reviews and interviews to the magazine Science Fiction Monthly and was also instrumental in acquiring several works of fiction for that magazine. During the late 1970s and early 1980s he was a science fiction advisor to and reader for Fontana Paperbacks. In the mid 1980s he was one of the principals of, and editor for, Britain's first SF small press, Kerosina Publications, which published books by Brian Aldiss, Philip K.
