Todd Thorne
Biography
Todd Thorne resides in the Piney Woods of East Texas with his wife and a rescue cat (who rules the roost but graciously permits humans to use it). He's come to expect and appreciate labels of 'dark and gritty' as pertains to his writing and he feels the space-time continuum must grind to a halt the day he writes a lighthearted, cozy yarn. He's been fortunate enough to have a few tales published online and he managed to level up by publishing his first novel during the height of a worldwide pandemic.

Chasing tornadoes that chase you back. Not what Raven signed up for in her first year at college. Nor blackmail, deceit, and potential murderous aims of the professor in charge of their research. Not to mention a psychotic woman making eerily impossible yet unerring predictions.
A fully-funded degree program and perhaps her true calling were at stake. Worth fighting for? Hell yes.
But dying for?

When time runs out, people get desperate. That's why Shauna volunteered for the suicide mission against the alien Zets. Time was nearly up for the human survivors of a centuries-old war, so why not?

The future does not look bright.... Seven dark and gritty tales of what-if describe a troubled tomorrow on the small scale, from the eyes of a few people enduring it. These doses span a little dystopia, doomsday, technology run amuck, and the nasty side of virtual reality. Six of these stories were previously published in this collection of darker days to come.

Timmy can't get a break. First, his parents are wrecking their marriage with zero reluctance to use him in the process. Second, he's got a monster under his bed, stuck there as a result of him losing a story duel with Joshua. Unfortunately Joshua is about to blow him off, not wanting to waste time with someone incapable of creating a nerve-racking, virtualized story. Timmy isn't worthy. Or is he?
