He is a teacher, writer and editor and has published several collections of poetry and a number of novels for children and young adults.[2] His work has been published widely in journals both in New Zealand (including Landfall, Islands and Sport) and overseas, and his short stories for children have been widely anthologised.[3] He has been poetry and short story editor of takahē magazine[4] and poetry editor of the Christchurch Press,[7] and has worked closely with the Christchurch School for Young Writers, including editing the annual Re-Draft anthologies.[5] With Joanna Preston, he collected earthquake poems written in the weeks and months after the 2010 Canterbury Earthquake and subsequent earthquakes, and edited Leaving the Red Zone, an anthology of 148 poems by 87 poets from across New Zealand.[6][7][8] With Elizabeth Smither, he was judge of the 2016 Flash Fiction Day competition.[9][10]

He has appeared at a number of festivals and other book events including the Queensland Poetry Festival (2008), the International Poetry Festival in Medellin, Colombia, (2010), the Trois Rivieres International Poetry Festival in Quebec (2011)[11][12] and the Word Christchurch Festival (2018).[13]

James Norcliffe has lived in or near Christchurch for much of his life, apart from spells in China (in the 1980s) and Brunei Darussalam (in the 1990s).[14][5] He is married with two children and lives with his wife at Church Bay, Lyttelton Harbour.[15]

The Loblolly Boy won the 2010 NZ Post Junior Fiction Award and was shortlisted for the Esther Glen Medal and the Sir Julius Vogel Science Fiction Award.[17]

Norcliffe won the Lilian Ida Smith Award in 1990[18] and the New Zealand Poetry Society's international competition in 1992.[17][24] In 2003, he and Bernadette Hall received the inaugural Christchurch Press Literary Liaisons Honour Award for ‘lasting contribution to literature in the South Island’.[17]

Norcliffe was awarded the Robert Burns Fellowship at the University of Otago in 2000.[19] In 2006, he took up the Creative New Zealand Iowa University Fellowship and also took part in the Tasmanian Writers’ Island of Residencies programme.[20] He was Visiting Artist at Massey University in 2008[21] and he was the recipient of the 2012 University of Otago College of Education / Creative New Zealand Children's Writer in Residence.[22][23] During this residency, he wrote his children's novel Felix and the Red Rats.[24] He was the Creative New Zealand Randell Cottage Writing Fellow in 2018.[25][26]
