Gloria Harrison’s writing has appeared in Bear Deluxe Journal, and on The Nervous Breakdown, The Weeklings, Sweatpants and Coffee, and on the NPR show This American Life. She has shared stories around Portland at Backfence PDX, The Moth, YARN, and The Literary Gong Show. She is nearing completion of her memoir, Hell is for Children, and will have a draft ready for an agent before 2016. Additionally, Screen Australia will be funding the production of a live action short film adaptation of Gloria’s This American Life essay, “Let’s See How Fast This Baby Will Go,” with filming set to begin in early 2016. In her non-writing life, Gloria runs an office and tends to the needs of 13 year old twin boys who are named after the greatest fantasy author of all time and a drunken Spaniard from the greatest family movie ever made. She’s not entirely sure what she’s going to do after her boys graduate high school, but she’s pretty sure it will involve shenanigans in far sunnier climes.
