🎬 FINAL CUT PREMIERE W. (Walter) B.J. Williams: The Backstories And The Worlds Within Premiere Date: Wednesday, October 15, 2025 | 7:00 AM PDT

August 5, 1986. Half a ton of plywood. A concrete floor. A steel table saw. Walt Williams should have been decapitated.
Instead, he survived, with a hole in his spine, constant debilitating pain, and a story that will change how you see broken people.

Today, Walt is an InfoSec executive who's never had a data breach, the published author of FIVE books spanning fantasy epics to cybersecurity, and a man who's learned to weave humor through hell.

In this raw conversation, you'll discover:

✓ How a catastrophic accident at age 18 shaped a life of resilience and storytelling

✓ Why broken characters make the most beautiful stories (and why it's okay to be broken)

✓ The dark magic of "Johnny Talon and the Goddess of Love and War", addiction, Sumerian mythology, and redemption

✓ How his father's journey from alcoholism to becoming a deacon influenced Walt's faith and fiction

✓ Why living with chronic pain taught him to find joy every single day

✓ The connection between protecting data and protecting human dignity

From Boston bookstores to Readercon panels, Walt doesn't just write about hell, he guides readers through it with cookie-cutter humour and profound grace.

His latest novel explores addiction through the lens of an ancient goddess. His life explores what happens when you refuse to let catastrophe define you.
