Wiley James is a cross‑media storyteller with a singular mission: to craft stories that linger beyond the last page.

Through his imprint, WordWorx Media, Wiley explores the edges of true crime, mystery, and imagination. In Alternate Endings, he reimagines harrowing true events at the precise moment they could have taken a different turn, where victims summon courage, fate intervenes, and justice finally shifts the balance. Each story closes with a reminder of our own universe’s outcome, leaving readers to wonder: what if, somewhere, the other version is true?

In The Unsolved Case Files of Eli Mercer, Wiley introduces a detective unlike any other—a blend of noir narrator and forensic analyst, whose “Method” strips myth, media hype, and speculation away from history’s most infamous mysteries. From the Black Dahlia to the Zodiac Killer, Eli guides readers toward his relentless Most Likely conclusions: not final verdicts, but haunting possibilities.

Beyond the page, Wiley brings stories to life through original music, online radio broadcasts, and multimedia experiments, offering readers new ways to connect with his work. His approach to publishing combines craft, clarity, and impact—the pillars of WordWorx Media.

When he isn’t writing or recording, Wiley is already envisioning the next experiment: new fiction, new mediums, and new worlds to explore.

“The man’s got a habit of walking where others stop. People call it imagination, but I see it different. He’s not inventing ghosts—he’s dragging the furniture back into the room so you can see where the shadows really fall. They call him Wiley James. Around here, he writes the endings the universe owes, and files the cases every other detective abandoned. You ask me, he’s less of a dreamer and more of a man who keeps receipts from parallel worlds.” — Eli Mercer

“At WordWorx Media, my mission is simple: to give readers stories with craft, clarity, and impact. Whether reimagining true crime with alternate endings or unraveling mysteries through Eli Mercer’s eyes, my focus is on stories that resonate, that spark thought, courage, and conversation long after the book is closed. I believe in parallel universes and that we can influence this one, but engaging with these stories requires only compassion for those who left too soon.”
