Author
Fueled by a drive to create, a passion for adventure, and a thirst for truth, novelist, song writer, lyricist, screenwriter, playwright, sketch comedy writer, and grant writer Joseph Toto loves to write. As a writer and philosopher, Toto confronts the mortality driven insanity stowed away in the mind of every sentient being, always probing the deeper questions about humanity and the beautiful tragedy of life. His novels call out the human proclivity for distraction and serve to warn readers that time is short for all of us, reminding us to make the most of each moment we have.

Seeking Representation
From Under the Bed
The real estate agent told Jonah the house was in one of the safest neighborhoods in suburban Northeast Ohio. The agent hadn’t lied; she just didn’t know about the twisted soul who would be visiting that hot day in July. When his wife and infant daughter suddenly disappear, Jonah’s life shatters. A former employee with a grudge, a landscaper with a gruesome past, and even his wife’s own sister—with whom Jonah had once had an affair—are all suspects. So is Jonah’s estranged, cult-prophet father. When the police begin to suspect Jonah, his Deaf best friend discovers the terrible truth. Jonah finds his faith, but it’s poisoned with rage as he realizes the true power of forgiveness—as a weapon.
