Who is S.R. Harris?
She started writing these stories 10 years ago after spending a lot of time with sheep on the Isle of Skye. She also lives in Brussels because her husband is Flemish and some of these stories have been translated into Dutch and are published by a Belgian publisher. These can also be obtained by contacting us. She also writes about ducks who can’t fly (Vlieglessen van een Vlegel), boys who find cocoa beans in vending machines (Het Mysterie van de Bienoboon ) and a girl who discovers she is special (The Godmother). These books have been the subject of numerous educational projects, both in Belgium and the UK , and she organises writing and poetry workshops and teaches English to refugees. S.R. Harris’ short stories have been shortlisted for the Asham, Ian St James and Bridport prize and are published in Wild Cards, the 1999 Virago anthology of writing women and Making Changes, an anthology published by Bridge House in 2008. She is now writing a novel which has something to do with … cows! But she will always have a particularly soft spot for those sheep on the Isle of Skye.
