Emily Glenn is a writer and artist who lives in Highland, Illinois, with her parents and four cats. In third grade she was dubbed the Queen of Verbs; in fifth, she went to the state conference of the Illinois Young Authors’ contest, and has been addicted to words ever since. When not wearing the letters off the keys of her laptop, she’s commonly found on Tumblr, giggling at whatever she’s reading, dabbling in the strange and somewhat creepy, or watching old black-and-white films. She’s first chair flute in the middle school band, lives off of coffee and chocolate, and is absolutely obsessed with all things Marvel.
