“A blurb is a short promotional piece accompanying a creative work. It may be written by the author or publisher or quote praise from others. Blurbs were originally printed on the back or rear dust-jacket of a book, and are now found on home video cases, web portals, and news websites. A blurb may introduce a newspaper or magazine feature story.” – Wikipedia

Glenn Porzig is best known as the creator of the comic book heroine Ace of Diamonds. Glenn grew up reading comics, pulp novels, and watching too much TV.

From 2005 to 2018 he was the co-host of a weekly fandom podcast PodCulture.com.

Glenn’s work in the television industry spans over twenty years and includes two highly rated specials for SCI FI Channel; The Roswell Crash: Startling New Evidence, and The New Roswell: Kecksburg Exposed. For twelve years he, literally, had his head in the clouds as a videographer on a TV news helicopter.

Glenn’s first short story, Master of the Dead, was published by Destroyer Books in More Blood: A Sinanju Anthology. His debut occult horror novella, Darkness Unbound: Lady in Black, was released the summer of 2014. Since then he has released three sequels and one collected volume.
