About the author

Sarah E. Glenn has a B.S. in Journalism, which is a great degree for the dilettante she is. Later on, she did a stint as a graduate student in classical languages. She didn’t get the degree, but she’s great with crosswords. Her most interesting job was working the reports desk for the police department in Lexington, Kentucky, where she learned that criminals really are dumb.

Her great-great aunt served as a nurse in WWI, and was injured by poison gas during the fighting. A hundred years later, this would inspire Sarah to write stories Aunt Dess would probably not approve of. She is co-author of the Three Snowbirds mysteries with Gwen Mayo.

Sarah belongs to Sisters in Crime, the Short Mystery Fiction Society, and the Historical Novel Society. She lives in Safety Harbor, Florida.

Reviews

[Stephanie Faris · Rating 5 out of 5]

At this point in our nation's history, I think we all could use a little comic relief every now and then. Strangely Funny IV delivers on that front, with 19 stories that combine horror and comedy--not a combination you see every day! My favorite story was Save or Die by C.D. Gallant-King, which follows four heroes as they set out on a quest to rescue a princess who has been kidnapped by ogres. It has everything a horror-comedy should--fun heroes, goblins, and snarky humor!
