I’ve created musical soundtracks to complement many of my short story collections. I’ve had a lot of fun making these and I’m really pleased with how they’ve turned out. If there are particular stories of mine you enjoyed reading, you may enjoy hearing them as songs!

Here are two fun ones to start with:

• Hide the Honey: fun, folksy, toe-tapping tune about a bear cub who gets too much honey. (Based on a story from Animal Voices, Unicorn Whispers.)
• Speed Questing: pop-punk song about never reading the quest text. (Based on a story from Commander Annie and Other Adventures.)

Coming August 18, 2025, a new pair of stories starring Grawf, an ursine exchange officer on the starship Initiative!

Grawf is a bear from the planet Ursa Minuet, surrounded by uplifted cats and dogs from Earth. How can she maintain her identity and culture far from home, how can she share it with a bunch of cats and dogs, and what’s going on with a mysterious visitor and his hidden past?

Find out in Ursine Exchange Officer, the fourth book in the Chronicles of Tri-Galactic Trek series, following Labrador Lieutenant, Collie Commander, and Arctic Fox Android.

17 years ago, I wrote my first story about Maradia and the robots she built on Crossroads station. In the years that followed, I wrote many stories about her, some of which were published in Analog, Daily Science Fiction, and other magazines.

In my upcoming collection, Maradia’s Robot Emporium, you can find all these stories along with 10 brand new stories! This is my answer to Isaac Asimov’s I, Robot, to Johnny 5 from Short Circuit, to D.A.R.Y.L., and so many other works of fiction that explored the limits of humanity through the lens of artificial life.

I hope you love reading this book, and I hope you come to love Maradia and her many robots as much as I do!
