Greg Bills is Professor & Chair of Creative Writing at the University of Redlands in Southern California. His published work includes the novel Consider This Home (Simon & Schuster), which Tony Kushner called “a wonderful, exciting novel…fierce, funny, smart, observant, and at times, very sexy,” and for which Antonya Nelson in the Los Angeles Times described the ten-year-old main character as “one of the most memorable consciousnesses I’ve had the pleasure to inhabit in recent fiction.” Another novel, Fearful Symmetry, was published by Dutton/Penguin, and his stories and essays have appeared in Brothers & Beasts: An Anthology of Men on Fairy Tales, Orange County: A Literary Field Guide, The Santa Monica Review, Fairy Tale Review, and Los Angeles Review of Books. He received his BA from the University of Utah, his home state, and then graduated with an MFA from the University of California, Irvine. In addition to his teaching, he serves as Editor-at-Large for the online lgbtq film festival resource The Queer Repertory Project. He has been recognized as a prominent lgbtq author by the Mapping Literary Utah project, and he has served periodically on the fiction staff at the Community of Writers conference in the High Sierra and as a visiting professor at Wake Forest University. He lives in Los Angeles.
