Episode 39: Writing Across Worlds: Tyler Lenz's Journey Through Texas Accelerated and Beyond
Ever wondered what would happen if your hometown was suddenly surrounded by prehistoric beasts? Or if Earth itself transformed into a video game overnight? These are the imaginative worlds author Tyler Lenz brings to life in his gripping science fiction adventures.
Tyler's journey as a storyteller defies conventional wisdom. Beginning his writing career around age 30, he transformed his background in technical writing into a passion for crafting page-turning adventures that readers can't put down. What started as a challenge after reading self-published works he believed he could surpass has evolved into multiple successful series and a three-book publishing deal.
The Texas Accelerated series draws inspiration from a fascinating piece of forgotten history, a billion-dollar particle accelerator project abandoned in Waxahachie, Texas during the 1990s. Tyler brilliantly reimagines this real-world location as the catalyst for transporting a small Texas town into a world where saber-toothed tigers and woolly mammoths roam just beyond the city limits. The blend of small-town characters facing extraordinary circumstances creates a uniquely Texan post-apocalyptic adventure that's both thrilling and accessible.
For his upcoming Lit RPG series "Non-Player Character," Tyler ventures into a genre that's exploding in popularity while remaining largely unknown to mainstream readers. By simplifying the complex statistical elements that often define Lit RPG, he's created an entry point for curious readers to experience this fascinating blend of video game mechanics and traditional storytelling. His approach to writing across genres remains consistent—focused on entertainment above all else.
What sets Tyler apart is his dedication to creating stories that serve as true escapes. "I just want you to have a good time," he explains, highlighting his commitment to crafting roller-coaster reading experiences rather than vehicles for personal politics or heavy-handed messaging. This reader-first philosophy shines through in his accessible writing style, fast-paced plotting, and engaging dialogue.
Ready to explore prehistoric Texas or a world where Earth becomes the ultimate game? Dive into Tyler Lenz's imaginative universes today, and keep an eye out for his Moonquill/Podium Publishing debut coming in 2026!

Today I am thrilled to welcome author Tyler Lenz to the show. Tyler is the creator of the Texas Accelerated series, which begins with the Scene, and his second book, beyond the Scene, a thrilling mix of sci-fi, survival and small-town Texas grit. His work combines action, mystery and heart, earning praise from readers who say his books are true page-turners. But Tyler's storytelling doesn't stop there. He recently signed a three-book publishing deal for his new lit RPG series. It's a non-player character with Moonquill handling e-book and print and Podium Publishing producing the audiobook. The first book will launch in 2026, bringing readers into a whole new world where Earth itself has been turned into a game. Tyler's ability to blend fast-paced adventure with deep world building makes his work stand out and I can't wait to dive into both the Texas Accelerated Universe and his upcoming lit RPG series. Tyler, welcome to the podcast.
Speaker 2:What an introduction. Thank you, pam, you're welcome.
Speaker 1:Well, you're pretty amazing. You've got all kinds of stuff going on, I'm trying to.
Speaker 2:It's been a while, but it's finally starting to happen.
Speaker 1:I remember. Can I tell everyone how we met?
Speaker 1:Yeah, please do so we're at a market where we're both trying to peddle our books and he's not right next to my booth. He's kind of like over, you know, diagonally, and I said, hey, man, there's another author at this show, and so I said I'll go check it out. Hey, man, there's another author at this show, and so I said I'll go check it out. I went over there and we met and talked for a while and he was just so awesome to talk to and his books looked incredible. As a matter of fact, I got him to sign two copies right here and I still have them, but I did. I have to admit to you, I love to read my e-reader with my e-reader, so I just went online and purchased them online.
Speaker 2:Fine with me.
Speaker 1:And yeah, I should have had your book with me.
Speaker 2:I have yours upstairs. Well, I don't know if you're a memoir reader, but you know I like that.
Speaker 1:I want to escape reality, not learn more about reality when I read. That doesn't mean I don't appreciate a good memoir, I know, and I appreciate that you, because I have to write. It's like therapy for me to write about all the stuff. But I could dip into fiction. I don't know, I probably can never do it, you never know unless you try, I know Well. Can you tell us a little bit about your journey as a writer? What first inspired you to begin writing stories?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I started late, you know it was. I was probably about 30, 30, 132 when I really first actually started trying to write, but I've always been good at it. I got my degree kind of focused in writing and I've always enjoyed it. But it was more technical writing, journalism, focused writing. I've always loved to read and I always thought I would be able to tell a good story. And I was just reading all these self-published books and they had tons and tons of reviews and ratings and when I was reading these I was like this is not that great. I was like if they can do this, I can do this, I can do it. And that's really what spurred me. I read a book that was really popular and it just seemed so simple. I was like if?
Speaker 2:this hits, I can do this too, and so I tried and it worked out all right. So there was really no like deep desire in me my whole life to be an author. But boy, now there is. Once. I really started writing and figured out that I can do it. It really. I started to grow a passion for it.
Speaker 1:I think that it was always there. I think writing has always been in authors. It's just once you tap the passion and you figure out oh, it's a calling. That's what I think.
Speaker 2:And then once you it takes a lot of guts too, I think.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we can't give it up.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think it takes a lot of guts. I think a lot of people are just scared to try Um, because it's such a commitment, you know, to try to write a full book and and then to put it out there for other people to read. I think that's that stepping stone, a lot of people. Just it scares them too much to even try, cause what if people don't like it? What if I'm going to get one star reviews? You know which I've got some of and you know you just wait out with those five stars and you just focus on the people and that's what I do.
Speaker 1:Well, the one stars make the five stars believable.
Speaker 2:That's what I think it really does.
Speaker 1:They're not all pretend yeah. So you've written across different genres the sci-fi, post-apocalyptic world, with Texas Accelerated, and now the lit RPG. What draws you to these kinds of worlds?
Speaker 2:It's always what I've liked, so I write what I want to read and I've always been a big fan Of, like post-apocalyptic the whole genre. I love zombies, I love electromagnetic pulses Shutting down the electrical system Across the country and chaos ensuing, nukes going off or asteroids, anything like that it's always been really entertaining to me, and as I was reading those going off or asteroids, you know, anything like that it's always been really entertaining to me, and as I was reading those, they get so dreary and dark and bloody and predictable that I like a little less, and so in mine it's a lot more lighthearted and I just want to have a fun time.
Speaker 2:And so that's kind of why I started doing that post-apocalyptic and the lit RPG stuff is it's a huge genre, it's the biggest genre that no one knows about except for nerds, but it also has kind of a they always kind of a post-apocalyptic vibe or a dystopian vibe and and so it kind of all fit together. And yeah, I've just I love video games and I love reading, and so lit RPG comes together perfectly.
Speaker 1:It does, and I have to admit I never knew or heard about Lit RPG until we met at the market.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't think most people do know about it.
Speaker 1:I mean, it's pretty incredible and you have a huge following. It's like you have a whole community that's all involved in the story.
Speaker 2:Yeah, especially for this particular genre, a lot of people release them online first as like a web serial, so they'll release one or two chapters a week and try to build an audience as they go. And so that's what I did, and over the last six months, eight months, I've been releasing this story and building followers as you go and then I finally finished it. I'm like, well, I got, you know, almost a thousand people following me. Maybe I should reach out to some publishers and, you know, kind of use those numbers to leverage it. And it worked out. And there are it's a website called Royal Road where I release my lit RPG. It's called Non-Player Character.
Speaker 1:I looked into that, by the way, yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's really cool and a lot of publishers that focus on that genre. They'll follow that website and they'll reach out to people, too that make it to the top.
Speaker 1:So it's a great way to get started for people who just want to test the waters to see if people like what they're putting out little more basic because for listeners who may not be familiar, like me, you know when I first heard about it what exactly is lit RPG and how does non-player character fit into the genre.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's a great question. So lit RPG is short for a literary role-playing game, so it is a video game in a book, and so the key features that make something a lit RPG are you level up, you increase in power somehow, and that there is a system in place that facilitates, you know, this player growth and gives you special abilities and, you know, makes you more than just a regular human. So there's superhero books that are slightly more structured and you have to actually earn that next step up in power, and so that's kind of the basis of lit RPGs. If you think of a video game, maybe some of your listeners know World of Warcraft is a big RPG. That's where you level up. Each level up you get a new skill, and it's very similar to that and that's where the inspiration came was video games.
Speaker 1:I love it so much because I'm an older geek. You're the current geek, I'm from way back, but I still love, love, love. You know to explore and learn and watch how this all is transforming into a, into a. I mean, there's a lot of different worlds out there. You know for you to play.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and this genre it's growing so fast but you still don't, I think a lot of people still don't know about it. But I mean there's one. The biggest one out right now is called Dungeon Crawler Carl and it's a massive series. We're talking like New York Times list bestsellers. It's in Walmart, it's in every bookstore and you know like million copies sold type of book. They're massive and there's a lot of others that are, you know, growing just as fast.
Speaker 1:I love it. I love it so much and maybe you'll get a bunch of new followers from this.
Speaker 2:I hope so.
Speaker 1:I want to back up a little bit, though, and go back to your Texas Accelerated series. We kind of skipped over that and got to the real exciting new thing. So, for those new to your work, how would you describe the seam and beyond the seam which make up the first two books of your Texas Accelerated series?
Speaker 2:almost semi-post-apocalyptic romp through Texas. I think the best way to describe it is for those who have read Stephen King's Under the Dome. It is very similar to that, except there's no dome and instead there are saber-toothed tigers and woolly mammoths, you know, kind of preventing people from exploring outside of their town. So the whole concept was I wanted to put a town in a Pleistocene or kind of like late Ice Age world. I thought that would be fun and I didn't know how to do it. But I was able to connect some dots around Waxahachie, texas and Central Texas and this old particle accelerator. They were building there back in the 80s and the 90s and it was a billion-dollar project. It was going to be the biggest particle accelerator in the world. They dug 30 miles of tunnels deep underground and then the government cut funding and so they had to flood those tunnels and just give up, scrap the whole project. But in my series it was completed in secret and things go sideways.
Speaker 1:I mean that's just inviting a story, right, All that Right.
Speaker 2:There is one other book I know that utilizes that particle accelerator, but it's a love story and so mine's completely different, so I can't believe. Yeah, it's such a great mechanism to launch a story. I was really lucky to have stumbled upon that.
Speaker 1:Well, why I mean? Are you from Waxahachie?
Speaker 2:No, I'm not. I knew about it. I actually work for a company that has a presence down in that area of Texas, and when I was kind of looking up information about that area, that's when I discovered it, and so I've had that information locked in the back of my head and I was just able to kind of piece it together when this idea came forward.
Speaker 1:I'm from.
Speaker 2:Oklahoma, not a Texan.
Speaker 1:Oh, really Okay. Well, that's interesting and now I mean it's really cool, really cool the whole concept of a small town and it's suddenly surrounded by the prehistoric animals. That's pretty unique. Yeah, yeah, there's not enough story out there like that. Yeah, I just want to send them to a completely different world and see if they live.
Speaker 2:And I'm the type of writer that I don't know for sure if everyone's going to live. I'm a right by the seat of your pants guy. I have a good idea of where I want to go and I'd never really know how I'm going to get there until I start writing.
Speaker 1:Well, maybe you can take over Game of Thrones for George. He thinks like that too, yeah.
Speaker 2:I don't know if I could, like he'll spend like two paragraphs describing a food and I don't think I can do that. 'm I'm, I'm a very practical writer. Um, I get to the point, I'm a plot guy. Uh, plot and dialogue are my strong suits, and less so that that that literary descriptive nature is not so much in me, uh, like it is in George yeah, I hope he finishes.
Speaker 1:I do too well, yeah, I do too. It just needs to have a better diet. It needs to live a little longer.
Speaker 2:It needs to stop writing all this other stuff and making these movies and shows, yeah right, makes them happy.
Speaker 1:Apparently, you shared with me at the market that you were in the process of recording your first audio book and I noticed when you announced it you're like hey, it's live, go check it out Now. I haven't done that yet, but are you pleased with the results?
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, I'm so happy. It's all self-published too, so I didn't do the audio myself, but I'll start at the very beginning, so that Texas Accelerated series is self-published. It's written by me, covers are made by me, it is edited by me, I am everything, which is probably a bad idea, but hey, it's worked out so far. Um, amazon has this program called ACX where you can kind of have a potential narrator's audition, and so I just did that. I found someone I really loved. Turned out to be his first audio book to ever do, but it worked out so great and, yeah, I'm super duper happy with it. It sounds really, really good.
Speaker 1:Well, everyone listening, go check it out, go check out.
Speaker 2:Please get the seam on Audible. You'll love it, I promise.
Speaker 1:And the ACX, I noticed I've been doing some research because I only have one book out there, that's, you know, my book from the Piney Woods. But I am looking into doing an audio book and I did. I had people did, had tryouts, I guess, for the part to read for me, and then there were a lot of people that were giving me examples of their work. But it is an investment. You know, if you do it yourself it doesn't cost you anything, but it's some work. But I have been looking into actually publishing to with ACX. But I'm trying to make the decision if I should be exclusive or not. Did you which one? Did you Better?
Speaker 2:royalty rates Like a huge difference. Or Well, it would, yeah, with Audible, if you're exclusive, yeah it'll. It'll be probably like 20% more royalty rates coming your way, and that's the same with with the like ebooks and and things like that. Um, if you're stay exclusive to um amazon, you get higher royalty rates, like significantly higher versus a wide release okay.
Speaker 1:Well, that's very interesting. I'm so happy to talk about that with you because it's like I don't know which, know which box to tick.
Speaker 2:Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1:It's a hard decision to make. Yeah, because there's. Is it Shopify?
Speaker 2:Well, there's IngramSpark is a really big one, another big publisher. And then there's Spotify, which is doing.
Speaker 2:I think that's what you're thinking of they're doing audiobooks too. But Audible I mean, they're still 60% of the market. Amazon Books is probably the same 60% of the whole market. You know it's hard to say If you're going for reach. You know, if you just want more people to see your book, perhaps going wide release is better. But if you're looking to, you know, have those better royalty rates and probably make more money, then I think going just exclusive with Amazon is a good deal, because if everyone's getting books from Amazon, it's just kind of how it is now.
Speaker 1:It's the way to go. I would agree with you. So anyone listening that's considering publishing a book, first of all, there's not. I mean it's difficult to make a ton of money as an author. I wasn't under that impression when I was first writing. I thought I'm going to make so much money with this book.
Speaker 2:Right, everyone does. But the reality is the reality snaps them in the face pretty quickly.
Speaker 2:Right, it's a work of love and passion mostly for writing. I think if you want to be successful at writing you really need to have a lot of content. You need to keep pumping out books and once you get five, six books out then you can start really advertising and actually getting a return on your investment and making money. Because if someone publishes a book, they have one book out that they'll be lucky to break even on ads Like that would be good if they're breaking even on ads and selling their book.
Speaker 1:Gosh, you're just a whole plethora of information. You know also, what was I going to say with that? Oh, I noticed that your style of writing you really do think about the reader. There's a lot of authors I've noticed that write their story and it's about them, it's all about them, and I think that you will be far more successful if you consider your readers.
Speaker 2:You know and what they're looking for and I can yeah, you have to write to your audience and I think my writing is very easy to consume and that's I think that's why it's done pretty well is, you know, anyone can sit there and enjoy it. And some of these literary works are a little too flowery, the prose is, and it can be kind of hard to follow sometimes and no one wants to read something. I think this is just me personally. I guess I don't want to read something and feel really stupid, like look how beautiful their writing is. And I do appreciate it, but sometimes, you know, I read for fun and that's what I wanted to give my audience is just a fun time, that's it.
Speaker 1:Well, I think I have one more author question, so let me get this right. You've partnered with Moonquill for the e-book and the print right and Podium Publishing for the audio book. Right so what's that experience been like compared to self-publishing? You know you self-publish with Texas Accelerated right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think because I've self-published these first two books. That's the main reason why I sought out a publisher, because I know how brutal editing is. It's such a slog. The first time through is kind of fun because you're shaping the story a little bit more, but then that second and third time through to make sure everything's correct is just a killer and it will burn you out. And so I really just wanted an editor, and editors are super expensive. So I'm like, well, I'll just seek a publisher out because they'll edit it for me. And so I. You know, with this book on on Royal road, I went straight to podium, because podium does audio books that I love. Specifically, I wanted them for audio and you know they're they're huge. I think they published a Quicksilver. It's the current New York Times bestseller.
Speaker 2:They published Stephen King's last book. They're very, very legit, and I was like, oh, that'd be awesome to get them. So I sent only to them, and they responded in like three days and set up an interview with me. I sent them the manuscript and they reviewed it, and what I sent them was such a mess. It is not well edited, and I made that clear. And so they're like hey, we really like this.
Speaker 2:We want the audio rights, though, and we want you to partner with this other group. That's kind of a. They're not the same company, but they partner together a lot, and so they put me in touch with Moonquill to handle that editing and the ebook release and everything like that. So everything should come out at the same time. Podium will do the audio, it'll be published by them, and then Moonquill will do everything else, and it's been great so far. We're very early in the process, just signed, so I haven't even started editing yet, but it'll probably take a whole year before they can get it out so you think it'll go it'll, it'll, it'll go live.
Speaker 2:You'll launch in 2026 yeah, probably mid to late 2026 okay, good, we're all gonna look for that.
Speaker 1:My goodness, oh my gosh. But yes, it is tiring, and if you can delegate the workout to someone, man, it's got to be a lot better. I can't wait until I can do that myself, oh my gosh. But yes, it is tiring, and if you can delegate the workout to someone, man, it's got to be a lot better. I can't wait until.
Speaker 2:I can do that myself. Yeah, right now I'm doing it all.
Speaker 1:I'm wearing all the hats.
Speaker 2:It's so hard, isn't it? Yeah?
Speaker 1:it is, and promoting yourself. It's really a labor of love.
Speaker 2:Yeah, promoting yourself is the hardest part, I think, is just trying to find that audience for your book once it's done, and so hopefully, with some publishers at my back, it'll make it a little easier.
Speaker 1:So when you're writing, do you write differently depending on whether it's post-apocalyptic sci-fi or lit RPG? I mean, is it very difficult to go back and forth between the two types of writing?
Speaker 2:No, actually, and I'll do like a chapter of one book one night and then the next night do a chapter of the other, and I think my writing style is it's the same across the board but non-player characters, first person and only first person perspective throughout the whole book. And Texas Accelerated has a cast of characters you know in third person. So they're completely different. But I think when people read them they'll be like ah, that's Tyler, that's his style, yeah.
Speaker 1:So how do you balance world building with um keeping the story moving and action driven? You know?
Speaker 2:like a game. I'm very much a let the plot drive everything type of guy, with Texas Accelerated. You know Waxahachie already exists, so it's pretty easy to take that template and just build on it, although I did introduce them to a new world and I'm introducing fun things in that world for them to explore. But the world building there was pretty easy. Like that whole book is just good dialogue, good plot and fun, and less so character development and less so. You know world building, but with non-player character.
Speaker 2:Earth has been turned into, you know, a fantasy world and so I have to build this fantasy world from the ground up and make it believable. And yeah, that that's been harder than I thought. But you know that that book's really long. That first book it's like 130,000 words and Texas accelerated they're like 80,000 words each. So that gives you I have so much more time, you know, to build that, build that world around my character. And there's a lot more character growth, a lot more introspection in that one and I think the first person really allowed me to give that character more of a path to follow Because you know I'm in their mind. It's a lot easier to get in their mind.
Speaker 1:Right and we learn things from them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, it's weird. You're right, it is weird.
Speaker 1:You do it's life lessons.
Speaker 2:I'll write something and be like man. I should take that into account for my own life, yeah.
Speaker 1:Well, can you give us a little sneak peek, a preview of what's next in the book three you mentioned? You're doing a book three in Texas. Yeah, for Texas, accelerated yeah. Can you give us a little sneak peek?
Speaker 2:I hope I can get it out by the end of this year. So in book two they start exploring the world around them and realize it's bigger than they think and they're actually not the only people in this world, and so book three really expands on that. We get to learn more about the other people that exist in this world which are, but they're not so much like how you would imagine, native Americans. They're a lot more advanced, kind of maybe how some conspiracy theorists might imagine the ancient Egyptians were advanced, you know with. Perhaps they seem like their technology is rudimentary, but maybe they took a different path in technology and so some of that might seem like magic what they're able to do, even though it's just a different form of technology.
Speaker 2:So yeah, I'm going to expand on that a lot more and create a little more conflict between the Texans and this new indigenous population, which is their world, and this whole town just appeared out of nowhere, and so there's obviously going to be conflict.
Speaker 1:That is so cool. I'm very eager for it, so I'll be anxiously awaiting.
Speaker 2:I'm eager to finish it. I'm getting close.
Speaker 1:Do you communicate with your community that you've established about your lit RPG people? Do you keep them in tune with your Steam series?
Speaker 2:Yeah, somewhat. When I got about halfway through writing that lit RPG and releasing it online, I would add notes at the end of the chapter and be like hey, if you like this check this out.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, yeah. So there's more crossover, I think, from people reading non-player character going over to texas accelerated than the texas accelerated people going over to non-player character, because a lit rpg can be confusing to even like get your mind around before. But but I wrote mine because a lot of them are numbers. They'll be like, oh, you're, uh, you know, you increase 20 in power. You know, at this level and this ability does this much damage, and it's like so specific and I'm not gonna keep track of that math. That's crazy, and so mine are. My powers are a lot easier, I think, for people to absorb when they're reading. It's just like, hey, you punch harder now. It's like, okay, that's easy, that's easy to grasp.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's always baffled me when I watch younger people playing those types of games. How do they remember all that? That's crazy.
Speaker 2:They love it.
Speaker 1:Yeah Well, so what do you hope your readers take away from your stories, whether it's, you know, like the saber-toothed tigers in Texas, or humans, discovering life is actually a game. I mean, what do you want them to get out of all of it?
Speaker 2:So I know the right answer is something deep, but the true answer is I don't want to teach you anything, I just want you to have a good time. That is it. My only goal is to entertain and I don't want to inject my personal politics or, you know, like my morality really into anything, because you know who am I to try to teach people anything. I just want to give them a good time. So I try to make a roller coaster ride.
Speaker 1:Yeah, quite frankly, that's what people really are looking for these days. You know an escape.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's what I've always. That's why I like to read is I want to escape, and that's why I don't like true crime and things like that, because I want to break from reality.
Speaker 1:I don't want to know more about it. Well, what a boring world it would be if we all were the same.
Speaker 2:Yes, yes, absolutely.
Speaker 1:So where can your readers find your books and connect with you online?
Speaker 2:Right, so Texas Accelerated. Both the Seam and Beyond the Seam are available on Amazon and the Seam book one is on Audible, with book two hopefully maybe later this year coming out on Audible and non-player character is currently only available on Royal Road, and so go look on Royal Road type in non-player character and the author will be Cashew that's my screen name there, I know I noticed.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so it won't have my screen name there.
Speaker 2:I know I noticed that. Yeah, so it won't have my name on it and that was intentional. You know you're releasing stuff online and you got to. I wanted to use a pen name, at least for that, but when it comes out officially I'll use it. Do you like cashews? I love them. They're one of my favorite nuts. Yeah, they probably are my favorite nut. Yeah, they're great.
Speaker 1:All right, tyler. Well, thank you, and I'll list all of that in the show notes, everybody, so that you can just easily click on a link. Thank you so much, tyler, for joining me.

So until next time, remember your past does not define you, it prepares you and you can always finish stronger than you started. See you next week. I love it.
