Writers Of The Storm

Wenford Joseph Greffey (W.J.) was born in Indianapolis Indiana on April 4th, 1973. At a young age, he took to reading and writing. In elementary school, he wrote his first story, and from then on he could not hold back his imagination. Movies, theatre, and television became his world. At a young age, he followed in his brothers’ footsteps, and enrolled at Culver Military Academy. He believed that he would eventually join the army as his father did, but while at the academy, he attended a theatre production and had a vision of his future.

In the fifth grade, he landed a lead role in his first play, "The Electric Sunshine Man" and from that moment on he was hooked. He knew then he had to act. He tried out for several plays while in school, and decided to study Theatre Fine Arts Performance in college. W.J. traveled to Washington D.C. to live with his brother while he attended college. While studying in Northern Virginia W.J. landed Lead roles in several productions including “Hello Out There” and “Black Comedy”

W.J. left Washington D.C. after being accepted to Ball State University to study theatre. While in school, W.J. would enjoy evenings with his friends playing miniature games such as Warhammer, and they would constantly watch movies. In his second year at Ball State, W.J. landed a paid acting job in a summer stock theatre. He played the role of Miles Gloriosis in the musical, "A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to the Forum." This started his acting career. Soon to follow would be other acting jobs as Leads, and as a character actor.

Throughout the years to follow W.J. learned that acting wasn't enough anymore. In 1997 he chose to pursue his second dream and become a writer. He approached his friends and asked them to work with him in creating an Authoring Production House. They loved the idea, and W.J. knew that in working with the most creative minds he had ever known, they could not fail. In 2006, Writers of the Storm became a reality.

In 2008 W.J. decided to explore film production, and produced and directed his first feature film “Pray for Dawn.” After the project’s success, W.J. felt he wanted to expand the Company to more than just a think tank. Since 2009, Writers of the Storm LLC, under the direction of W.J., and with the aid of his newest partner Mark Arnoldi, has completed four short films. Fox Hunt is the newest in a long line of Projects that Writers of the Storm will be undertaking in the near future.
