Stephanie Miller writes at the intersection of mind and machine, where the cold void of space meets the hot, messy core of human consciousness. Her work blends intricate world-building with high-stakes action and a fearless dive into the psychic and sensual landscapes of her characters. She believes the best science fiction explores not just what the future looks like, but what it feels like—in the mind, soul, and flesh. Stephanie lives in the Pacific Northwest with her patient spouse and an impatient cat who keeps her grounded in this particular corner of the space-time continuum.
