Biography

Thorne was born in Washington, D.C. After a successful career as a television actor including portraying police officer Wilson Sweet in the television series In the Heat of the Night from 1988 to 1993, Thorne began writing professionally, winning Second Prize in Simon & Schuster's sixth annual Strange New Worlds anthology with his story "The Soft Room." He went on to publish more stories in several media tie-in anthologies as well as the Star Trek: Titan novel Sword of Damocles.
Other stories he has written include contributions to Flying Pen Press's anthology Space Grunts, MV Media's Steamfunk anthology, and Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine.

The Winterman Project

The Winterman Project is a small press established by Thorne in which he produces shorts, comics and ebooks. Thorne describes it as "a place to play, a place where I could write what I want, make what I want without worrying about clients or editorial oversight." In the end of 2017, he launched "Winterman Comics", a line of comics including an anthology series and a series of titles.
