Re-Creative Spotlight: Lynda WilliamsIn this episode of Re-Creative, Mark A. Rayner and I dive into a fascinating conversation with author and publisher Lynda Williams, the “obscure Canadian Tolkien.” Joining us from Prince George, B.C., Lynda shares how she balances her academic background in Artificial Intelligence with her sprawling, ten-novel epic, the Okal Rel saga.We explore Lynda’s unique approach to collaboration, where she invites other writers to play in her sandbox rather than protecting her turf. We nerd out on the physics of “reality skimming” (her version of faster-than-light travel) and discuss how her universe evolved from a passion project into a collaborative literary ecosystem.For her "homework," Lynda chose Edgar Rice Burrough's Tarzan of the Apes series. We have a frank and illuminating discussion about the Victorian and colonial influences of this early 20th-century classic, and how those "larger than life" archetypes eventually seeped into—and were subverted by—Lynda’s own bioengineered cultures and dramatized philosophies.Support Our GuestLynda Williams is a powerhouse of Canadian science fiction whose work bridges the gap between hard science and epic space opera. Her ability to maintain an arc from beginning to end across ten novels has earned her a dedicated following from Germany to the Maritimes.Beyond her fiction, Lynda is a pioneer in the Canadian small-press scene and an educator who understands the intersection of technology and storytelling. Many of her co-collaborators have ensured that all aspects of the Okal Rel universe--everything from faster-than-light travel and fencing-- are grounded in scientific logic and reality.Lynda currently hosts a blog called Reality Skimming, where she continues to foster community by hosting guest posts on a wide range of intriguing themes.You can explore the vast Okal Rel universe and find all of Lynda’s work by visiting her blog at realityskimming.com or her official series hub at okalrel.org.You can subscribe to this podcast completely for free.
