Show Notes
Before "Silo" hit Apple TV it began as a short story, and that story became the novel WOOL, which author Hugh Howey went on to self-publish to great success even before having it optioned for the screen. In episode 319, join Luke & James as they discuss the value of dystopian storytelling, authors as a class destroyed, a different sort of tragic romance, and what worldbuilding details really sell this bold premise.
