Meet Will Glenn
- author of The Green Lady, Philadelphia's Urban Legend.
http://www.willglenn.net

A supernatural thriller about a long time urban legend involving the mysterious deaths and disappearances of children and adults that dates back over 100 years.
The story takes place in West Philadelphia and is narrated by its central character Lamar Cobb. A fictional writer for a fictional Newspaper called the Philadelphia Express. His mission is to find out the truth about “The Green Lady”. Does she really exist or is she just a long time myth. During his investigation he gets to know the people that have been suffering the most, the parents of the most recent missing and dead teenagers. After he hears the many stories and witnesses himself some strange happenings, he doesn’t know what to believe. But when people begin to die around him at a faster than normal rate, he realizes that the supernatural is entirely possible. Just when he thinks he has everything figured out the story takes a strange twist. Suddenly his past becomes linked somehow to these people and the legend of “The Green Lady”. Will he find out the truth or will he die trying?


What drew you to this particular genre?
I was always afraid of stuff when I was a child. Now it seems so easy for to use my imagination because of those childhood fears.

Why do you think speculative fiction is important?
I think it's important for a person to stretch their imagination. There are no limits on the imagination when writing speculative fiction.

What are the key elements or literary devices you use in your fiction (Ex. vampirew, space or time travel, first contact, Armageddon, etc.)?
Urban Legends, Ghost, Evil henchmen, family legacies

What are your plans for future books?
My second book is entitled "A Leak in the Lake" HardKnock will live Forever

When did you begin writing?
I have been writing all of my life, but The Green Lady is my first book.

Favorite author, book and/ movie:
I have two: Stephen King, Christine and Claude Brown, Manchild in a Promiseland. Movie:Independence Day

What do readers need to know about you and your works?
That I love to write and that there is more to come, with more twists and turns. I like inputting the unexpected at the end of my books.
