w00t-w00t! Tis December 1 -- which means it's not only time to complete the "Year of the Villain in Fantasy" post series, but to wrap up in style with a Grand Finale.
A Grand Finale of Villainy, no less -- and better yet, even moar Villainy Among Friends!

| Grand Villainy ... |
Last month Amanda Arista, Kim Falconer (who also writes as AK Wilder), and I joined forces to talk about Villainy in Fantasy
 |
| Kim Falconer, also writing as AK Wilder |
Between us, we not only explored villainy in genre terms, but with a weather eye to how villains, as well as heroes, drive our own storytelling.

Now we're back for A Grand Finale of Villainy!
Over the next few days we'll be taking an upfront (and sometimes personal!) look at a villain from one of our books -- being Very Villainous, of course!
But also illustrating those genre and storytelling themes discussed last month.
The first of our three features will post tomorrow, December 2, with Kim as our author-of-awesome in the spotlight.
