Vicki Atkinson and I recently recorded a podcast conversation with someone with a remarkable resume. Wayne Runde is an author, physician and veteran US Navy Commander, Wayne Runde. How’s that for a combo?
Wayne tells us about his book, Shadow of the Deceiver, the third installment in The Genesis Trust series. It’s a re-imagining of Isaac Asimov’s Foundation Series. We hear about why he was called to start writing even with his busy schedule and a fascinating set of hobbies from gardening to developing software.
Vicki and I ask about the intersection of science, morality and humanity that is a cornerstone for his writing and stories. Wayne tells us where he finds inspirations for characters from his professional life and his personal interactions within his church community.
This is a great episode with an author that has done a fabulous job of reimagining this classic series. We know you’ll love it.
Heads up! This is an episode that has already aired on the How to Share podcast so you may have already listened to it.
Here’s a clip of Wayne helping to connect the dots of how his disparate interests and hobbies come together:

Good interview, Vickiu and Wynne! Dr. Wayne Runde said it took him 20 years to start writing the trilogy growing in his head. But after he did, he cranked them out like Christmas cards. I looked up his trilogy on goodreads. I read the reviews for “The Genesis Trust,” the first one. A reviewer said this, in part, “There’s depth beneath the action, and that’s rare.” I will assume this holds true for all three. Good luck, Dr. Runde! 🙂

Wayne seems to have worn many hats and experienced much more than the average person. I offer kudos to anyone who fulfills their dreams, regardless of how long they take.
