GLENN DEVLIN
Being Deaf has not stopped Glenn Devlin from reaching his goal of becoming a
published writer. Ever since he began writing at the age of 10 in the
basement of his parent's home, Glenn has been winning awards. Glenn wrote a
short story in high school about talking houses that earned him first place
where he won a pocket dictionary. Later he wrote a conspiracy novel about a
secret formula hidden inside of Rubik's cube. The novel went nowhere but
only whetted Glenn's appetite to write more. At Gallaudet, Glenn churned out
countless short stories of horror and science fiction for the University
newspaper, "The Buff and Blue." He went on to win the Mac Dougall Creative
writing competition and the Lillian Gourley Rakon Creative Writing Awards.
Taking a stab at screenwriting while in college, his first script, "Wrath of
the Dragon," was a finalist at the 1988 Nissan Focus Screenplay competition
sponsored by Columbia Pictures. His recent script "Banshee", a supernatural
thriller, was a semi-finalist at the writesafe.com quarterly competition.
Another script, "And All of Hades Followed Him,", a western time travel, was
selected as featured screenplay of the month at splayground.com.
Glenn currently lives in Arizona with his wife, three children and three dogs
where he continues to write.
