Simply, Made Me Smile

Just got this amazing review and had to share.  Lots to digest here.

"Deadly Vision is straight-up next-level thriller vibes—like if Black Mirror met House but with that extra political edge. Dr. Taylor Abrahms is this tech genius trying to push medical VR into the mainstream, but everyone’s out here scheming to shut him down. The book’s got that perfect mix of biotech geekery and high-stakes drama, with sabotage, murder, and a dash of political chaos that keeps you hooked. It’s smart, fast-paced, and hits emotional beats without getting cheesy. 
 
If you’re into brainy thrillers that feel like a Netflix binge but on paper, this one’s a must. Definitely a page-turner for anyone who loves tech, drama, and a little bit of that underdog hustle energy."

Shameless Self-Promotion - First Review of my Novel

  I hope y'all don't mind, but I recently received the first professional, independent review of my novel,  Deadly Vision . The novel hasn't been published yet, but my publisher sought out an independent editor to review the book prior to accepting it. Not only did this give him impetus to publish the novel but it also gave him a review to help sell it. Now, of course, I was a bit psyched when this came in, so if you don't mind, I'd like to share it with you. Feel free to pass this on to any movie producers you'd like. :) Here's my first review! Please send your thoughts. The reader has a front row seat as Severin leads you into the world of virtual reality medicine and a graphic journey into the life in ER trauma care. Add to that some very surprising twists, well developed and quirky characters and you have a first rate thriller. Todd Severin's  Deadly Vision  is one of the best Techno-thrillers I have read. He may be the new and improved Michael Crich...

More Shameless Self Promotion -- Another Killer Review -- The Anticipation Builds

I'd like to promise that I won't share every single review or blurb that comes across for Deadly Vision , but I can't.  Because I probably will.  Because I so excited that this book is finally getting published.  My history with this novel is probably more involved, more complex, and longer than most any other author, a story I'll share someday.  But for now, let's just say . . . yes, I'm excited.  So, here's another review of my novel, this time from acclaimed author/novelist SV Brown who was kind enough to take a read of my pre-production manuscript and pen some words. "A real page turner. We are intrigued with mysteries of the body and mind. In the American landscape, we have explored this fascination through the works of Chandler, Hammett, Grafton, Spillane, Clancy, and Macdonald. Todd Severin's Deadly Vision is an intense, modern twist upon this exploration, cut from the same cloth of the American literary tradition that precedes it. "...

Gems Amongst the Dust - Lessons from the Slush Pile

I've been working on Deadly Vision for more years than I care to count, and received more rejection letters than you'd care to count, or would reasonably subject yourself to.  But I believed in the story and knew that others would too, if I could only write it in a way that would capture their imaginations and attention.  So I went to writing conferences, took classes, read many books, and constantly worked to improve my writing and my storytelling skills.   But one surprising place that provided an immeasurable amount of guidance and information was rejection letters.  In general, I never accepted rejection letters as a rejection of the story -- just where I was with it at that moment in time, with that particular agent.  I even went so far as to file my rejection letters not in a file named "Rejections" but in one I named "Try Again."   Once the story was better, they'd hear from me again, whether they wanted to or not.  But before I filed...
