Storefront Story explores storytelling as a multimodal technology of survival and community. It considers relationships we hold dear: with nature, each other, and the planet we share with all species. This project is part of my ongoing mission to place literary art in the path of everyday life.

Gabriela Denise Frank is a writer, editor, and transdisciplinary literary artist whose work expands from the page into the sonic, the visual, and the experiential. She writes about twenty-first century dreams: pop culture, nostalgia, individualism, burnout, midlife crisis, environmental disruption, and songs of contamination, faith, nature, and identity. A Jack Straw Writer, her work has appeared in True Story, Tahoma Literary Review, Poetry Northwest, Hunger Mountain, Bayou, Baltimore Review, The Normal School, The Rumpus, and elsewhere. She is the author of Pity She Didn’t Stay ’Til the End (Bottlecap Press). Her creative practice is supported by 4Culture, Artist Trust, Centrum, the Civita Institute, Invoking the Pause, Jack Straw Cultural Center, Mineral School, Seattle Public Library, Shunpike, Vermont Studio Center, and Willapa Bay AIR.
