The Man Behind the Verdict
ADVOCATE.
STORYTELLER.
TRUTH SEEKER.
40 Years in the Well
A native Tar Heel, Glenn was educated not only at Choate, UNC-Chapel Hill, and Wake Forest University School of Law, but also by digging deep ditches, running a jackhammer, and hauling block and bricks every summer to the tune of starting at 60 cents an hour.
Glenn has been a practicing litigator for more than 40 years. He has scouted and handicapped football and basketball games, has testified before Congress, and has traveled all about. This story has been flailing about in his mind for years, so one day about a year ago, he sat down and began to write it. Like becoming a trial lawyer, it just spontaneously poured out.
"I do not like fakes, frauds, pedants, poseurs, and better-thans."
Glenn adores the courtroom, as well as Southern people. He is comfortable in the cocoons of luxury and in the back alleys of slums. He has never started a fight, but has finished plenty.
Knowing he was in it for the long haul while embarking on his writing journey, he decided to create an imprint of his own to carry his work. He thinks there is much more to say.
Authenticity
No fabricated drama. The tension comes from procedural accuracy and psychological realism.
Character
Flawed heroes and sympathetic villains, grounded in the reality of human nature.
Grit
From digging ditches to testifying before Congress, the experience is real.
The Landscape Behind the Work
The ideas behind these stories were shaped by place as much as plot. Long walks, historic spaces, and the quiet tension between past and present have always played a role in how these narratives take form.
From the Lowcountry of South Carolina to the old tobacco buildings of Winston-Salem, and frequent returns to Chapel Hill, these environments offer a kind of rhythm — equal parts movement and stillness — that finds its way into the work itself. They are places where history lingers, where change is constant, and where stories tend to surface when you slow down long enough to notice them.
This body of work is rooted in that balance: observation and imagination, setting and character, memory and motion.
