Today, we have a special guest who needs no introduction if you're a fan of science fiction, the talented writer of Silo – now an Apple+ TV series - Hugh Howey.
Hugh Howey has an extraordinary journey that has taken him from working in bookstores to laboring as a roofer and even sailing on private yachts around the world. All the while, he was tirelessly crafting science-fiction novels and delving into various other genres. Just as James experienced with the self-publication of his book Choose Yourself, Hugh discovered the transformative power of self-publishing when he unleashed Wool onto the world. Little did he know that this gripping novel would eventually evolve into a groundbreaking TV series.
On today's episode, we dive deep into the realms of writing, self-publishing, and the allure of science fiction. Hugh Howey joins James in a thought-provoking conversation about the fascinating universe of Silo and the intricacies of television production. Together, they explore the themes of optimism versus pessimism, the rise of artificial intelligence, and many other captivating subjects.
