How do you write villains in fiction? Author Marla Himeda came on the show previously to discuss music in fantasy, along with her Master of Music series. Today she and I explore the different aspects of forming villains in our stories. Unfortunately her recording got cut off due to tech issues while we conversed, but I salvaged what I could of the conversation. Enjoy the interview.

You can find her work–both prose and the music that accompanies the story–at https://www.mhimedabooks.com/ and can purchase book 1 at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C2D5P4DC. (Book 2 is on the way!)

Noah Healy is a recreational mathematician and a market system theorist who likes to discuss his ideas on podcast “The 4th Age – the AI Revolution.” You can view his show here: https://www.youtube.com/@the4thage

We discuss how technology is and will push the limits into what has so far only been Science Fiction. Today’s discussion deals mostly with what technologies we see that will bring us into the future. Expect to see Noah back on the show in the near future to discuss other aspects of this theme.

Also, if you’re in or around northern Virginia, come see me in person at an event from 3:00-6:00 pm this Saturday, April 27! I’m not posting the details publicly because of the nature of the event, but if you message me individually, I’ll share them with you.
