Welcome back to another episode of Audio Signals. I’m your host, Marco Ciappelli, where we explore the stories and storytellers shaping our world. Today, I’m thrilled to have J.V. Hilliard with me—a fantasy author whose Warminster series is captivating readers everywhere. Whether you’re watching on YouTube or tuning in via podcast, stick around as we talk about his journey from defense lobbyist to acclaimed author and his expanding universe that’s reaching into video games.From Concept to Creation: The Birth of a Fantasy WorldJ.V. begins by sharing his path into writing, born out of the downtime of the COVID pandemic. While many were stuck at home, J.V. seized the moment to bring to life a story he had carried for over two decades. That story has since evolved into the Warminster series, a fantasy world that’s grabbing the attention of readers across the globe.The Warminster Series: A Saga for the AgesI asked J.V. about Warminster’s intricate world-building, and he walked me through the inspirations behind his creation. Drawing from the likes of Tolkien and Terry Brooks, J.V. has crafted a vibrant world, rich with magic, history, and compelling characters. His attention to detail—right down to the magical systems and language—gives Warminster a life of its own, inviting readers to fully immerse themselves in this epic series.Crafting Immersive Worlds and Complex CharactersWhat sets J.V. apart is his unique method of reverse engineering his stories. Starting with the ending, he crafts his way back to the beginning, ensuring that every detail is connected. He even uses a whiteboard to track character arcs and plot points, which gives his storytelling a strategic, almost battlefield-like precision.Writing Meets Technology: J.V. Hilliard’s Unique ApproachOur conversation shifted to how J.V.’s former career in defense writing helped him structure his novels. Writing legislation, grants, and speeches in his previous work helped him hone the skills to build complex narratives. It’s an intriguing example of how different industries can unexpectedly intersect, providing a foundation for creative writing.Expanding Horizons: From Page to Video GameOne of the most exciting developments in J.V.'s career is the adaptation of Warminster into a video game. Using augmented reality, similar to Pokemon Go, the game promises to bring his fantasy world to life in new ways. It’s fascinating to see a world that started in novels now evolving into a different medium, expanding its reach to gamers.What’s Next for J.V. Hilliard?As we wrapped up, J.V. teased some exciting future projects. The fourth book in the Warminster series, Echoes of Ghostwood, is set for release soon, and he’s working on three origin story novels for key characters. Fans can also look forward to a brand-new trilogy coming in 2026, expanding this magical universe even further.Conclusion and Future PlansThank you for joining us on this deep dive into the world of Warminster with J.V.
