At ten years old, John Matthew Gillen was sent to a Christian summer camp.

Campers were allowed one elective activity. Out of four hundred campers, John was the only one who chose Storytelling. The camp director asked him to choose another class so they wouldn’t have to offer Storytelling that year.

John refused.

Since then, he has been fired for writing poetry at work, cussed out by the Chief Clerk of the United States Supreme Court, and has spent over $10,000 on tickets to Bob Dylan concerts.

In addition to writing and directing short films in New York, John’s work has appeared in literary publications including The Laurel Review, Storgy Magazine, and The New Guard Literary Review.

His favorite authors include Jorge Luis Borges and Hank Bukowski, and he harbors a deep reverence for Martin Scorsese.

Manhattan is his home.
