Interview with Joe Prosit, Author of The Reality Reaction Team
14 Jan 2026
What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Reality Reaction Team?
Every day it gets harder and harder to decipher truth from falsehood. And I only see the problem getting worse. How can we make ethical decisions when there’s no consensus on reality? What do you do when fact and fiction become identical? Well, you can, The Reality Reaction Team, that’s what.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of The Reality Reaction Team, what would they be?
There’s a cool jazz cover of Genesis’ “Land of Confusion” by Stella Starlight Trio. This would definitely be the book’s theme song.
What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
I read all genres, but find myself reading more horror than anything else.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
Half of Stephen King’s Dark Tower series (I’m currently on Book 5), The Guns of August by Barbara Tuchman, and more Dungeon Crawler Carl… In February, I’m committing to reading one classic short story each day.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
There’s a scene in the book when two Reality Reaction Team agents have to notify a woman that her wife isn’t dead; she just never existed. It’s a core example of what the job entails, but also sheds light on the need for humanity and kindness when harsh truths must be revealed.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
I like to listen to music, loud. Punk, metal, movie soundtracks… You name it.
Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?
If you’re not having fun, you’re doing it wrong.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
That’s for them to figure out. The benefit of writing novels is having a whole book to get my points across.
