Frankie Styles Adventures
A week on the beach, a category-five cyclone, and a cargo captain who can never quite clock out. Cozy space opera at its most fun.
Cooperative Realm
Underwater adventure, galactic politics, and a first-contact mystery beneath the waves. A doorway into a world spanning generations.
Cooperative Realm
A communications engineer must choose between her kidnapped daughter and betraying her crew. Tense, tender, and impossible to put down.
I spent years as a journalist explaining how the brain works and how science shapes our lives — and somewhere along the way I fell for the kind of science fiction that’s less about lasers and more about people. My stories run to the cozy end of the galaxy: found families, decent people in over their heads, and the small acts of courage that hold a crew together.
Whether it’s cargo captain Frankie Styles talking her way out of trouble or the deep, generations-spanning world of the Cooperative Realm, I write the sci-fi I most want to read — warm, curious, and a little bit funny.
