Hi, my name is TZ Barry, and I'm a story addict...
Story Addict is a collection of 27 short stories written between 2010 and 2018, spanning a variety of genres including science fiction, fantasy, horror, crime, thriller, literary, dark humor, and satire. There's time travel, telepathy, parallel universes, aliens, robots, artificial intelligence, hackers, spies, invisibility, dinosaurs, wizards, talking jellyfish, and more.
In Double Life Sentence a man battles his doppelganger across the multiverse. Unwanted Thoughts explores the downsides of being able to read others' minds. A video game character becomes self-aware in First-Person Shooter. In Time Travel Email a pizza delivery driver receives an email from his future self with tips to improve his life. The Dating Game 3000 is an episode of the classic TV show a thousand years from now. In Hacking Mars two teens take control of the Mars rover and discover something unexpected on the red planet.
