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!

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.
