What happens when the future disappears?

In this episode of Notes From the Edge, I’m joined by dystopian thriller author T.A. Thompson, creator of The Mark, to explore the fascinating intersection of survival, morality, power, and human nature.

Through the lens of fiction, we’ll discuss why stories about collapse often reveal uncomfortable truths about ourselves. From morally complex characters and impossible choices to leadership, identity, and what happens when consequences begin to disappear, this conversation goes far beyond writing a novel.

We’ll also explore:

• Why dystopian fiction continues to resonate today
• Building unforgettable anti-heroes readers love and hate
• The psychology of survival under extreme circumstances
• How a career built around risk shaped an entirely fictional world
• What fiction can teach us about who we become when everything changes

Whether you’re a reader, writer, or simply fascinated by the psychology behind great stories, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

Join us live, bring your questions, and be part of another meaningful conversation.

Welcome to the Edge.
