About the Author

Chris Roberson's short fiction can be found in the anthologies Live Without a Net (Roc, 2003), The Many Faces of Van Helsing (Ace, 2004), Tales of the Shadowmen, Vols. 1 and 2 (Black Coat Press, 2005 & 2006), FutureShocks (Roc, 2006), and Forbidden Planets (Daw, 2006), and in the pages of Asimov's, Postscripts, and Subterranean Magazine. His novels include Here, There & Everywhere (Pyr, 2005), The Voyage of Night Shining White (PS Publishing, 2006), and Paragaea: A Planetary Romance (Pyr, 2006), and he is the editor of the anthology Adventure Vol. 1 (MonkeyBrain Books, Nov 2005). Roberson has been a finalist for the World Fantasy Award for Short Fiction, the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer, and twice for the Sidewise Award for Best Alternate History Short Form (winning in 2004 with his story “O One.”)

He was a co-founder of the writers’ collective Clockwork Storybook. In addition to producing monthly material for the collective’s online magazine, Roberson produced four novels under the aegis of their imprint—Voices of Thunder, Cybermancy Incorporated, Set the Seas on Fire, and Any Time At All—which received positive reviews from The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, Asimov’s Science Fiction, The New York Review of Science Fiction, Infinity Plus and RevolutionSF. 

In 2003 Roberson and his business partner and spouse Allison Baker launched the independent press MonkeyBrain Books, an independent publishing house specializing in genre fiction and nonfiction genre studies. Releases include the extraordinary talents of Michael Moorcock, Alan Moore, Philip José Farmer, Jeff VanderMeer, Jess Nevins, Kim Newman, Rudy Rucker, Paul Cornell, and more.

On February 19, 2004, the couple became the proud parents of a daughter named Georgia Rose Roberson. The family resides in Austin, Texas.
