Andrew Harkless

Andrew Harkless was born in Orange, CA, raised in PA, and now resides in coastal NC. He writes coming-of-age stories (regardless of the age) about everyman characters who reach extraordinary crossroads where change is the only path. “No matter how average a person may seem at first glance, everyone holds a remarkable story inside.” To write for the Everyman about the Everyman, his research included 50+ bartending jobs over 20 years, from the Caribbean to Hawaii and up the coast from Florida to New York, including two cruise lines, college bars, hotels, and night clubs. He met every kind of person you can imagine: politicians, celebrities, socialites, astronauts, bikers, drug dealers, gang members, spoiled college kids, homeless people…and for good measure, he spent three months traveling coast to coast and into Mexico on a motorcycle, vagabond style. These adventures were for character, situation, and circumstance research, just the way a method actor goes about researching their next role.
