I am an unrepentant science fiction novelist. Sometimes I mess around with other kinds of writing. I won an Arthur C. Clarke Award for a book that was published when I was 29, and I’ve been shortlisted for the same award on three other occasions since. My novels have also been shortlisted for the BSFA Award, the Tiptree Award, and the John W. Campbell Memorial Award.  I have translations in eight languages.

I grew up in New Jersey and live in the Shropshire hills in the UK with Steve Morris, our three children, and five rescue cats. I have a BA in Music from Bard College, an MA in Education from Columbia University, a BSc(Hons) mainly in physics with the Open University, and both an MSc and a PhD in Astrophysics from the Astrophysics Research Institute at Liverpool John Moores University. I now work as a scientist at Climate X, where I model hazard risk due to climate change using machine learning.
