The Aeon 14 Podcast

The team looks back on 2018, what we've accomplished, what we've learned, and what we have ahead.

Amy, Jen, Jenny, Lisa, James, and Michael all chat about where Aeon 14 has been, where it's going and what we're excited about for the future.

Michael's away, and the team shall play. They make fun of me a bit, and also interview Nicole Grotepas, a new author who is coming on board with the Aeon 14 team.

Today Jenny, Jen, Amy, and Michael talk about how living in the future isn't going to stop people from having to make hard choices.

Much of this was inspired by the events of Kill Shot, and what Tanis has to go through in that book to clear her name and pull off a victory.

Following our trip to Vegas for a writing conference, the team gets together to talk about what happens when technology goes amok.

This topic ties in tightly to Tau Ceti and the nanophage that they have to deal with in that system.

This 'cast was recorded at a writer's convention in Vegas where much of the team was together, and sitting on one queen-sized bed.

We chat a bit about Tau Ceti, releases, a bit about why were in Vegas, and generally have a good time.

This is at the root of many of our conversations. What does it mean to be human? Is Rika human? Are AIs? Is Crash?

If you take a human mind and you put it in a machine is it still human? Does it lose it's soul?

Find out what we think about it, and what we still ponder.

In this episode, Amy DuBoff joins the team and we talk about memory, how we're recording more of our lives, and whether or not we'll some day be able to quite literally live in the past.

Which, of course, has a whole host of complications attached to it....

In this episode, Jenny, Jen, and Michael talk about the world of Tyre, and its many natural wonders in celebration of the 2nd book in the Building New Canaan series's release.

We also wander off into speculation over what other things the FGT may have made in their work across the stars.

We talk about about Rika, and then dive into how interstellar commerce would work both before, and after the advent of FTL.

This is pretty cool stuff, and something I find incredibly interesting.

In this podcast, four of the Aeon 14 writers talk about how we deal with criticism, from the initial reaction to how we internalize it and then figure out what to do with what we've received.

We talk about the good, the bad, and how some feedback (both good and bad) has shaped how we write.
