Twisted: Tales to Rot Your Brain Vol. 1 collects 28 flash fiction stories in a book that targets anyone who giggles when a tale takes a surprising turn, from middle grade readers through their adult counterparts. The stories in the collection unfold using traditional text and illustrations and even a graphic novel. And all of the stories lean toward the edge of the twisted: told from unexpected perspectives; not about what you thought they were; head off in a direction you weren't counting on. And here's hoping you never see it coming. Blindsided. Time to giggle.
Nora Thompson writes in incomplete sentences and never used to. And sometimes those sentences start with conjunctions and end in prepositions. Go figure. She ditched the rules when she started drawing The Rots and discovered flash fiction cured a short attention span. She had a normal childhood, really.
