Grant Collier sometimes writes short fiction, usually of the speculative variety. He has been published once before, in Clarkesworld. He’s been known to sleepwalk, and hopes to someday sleeprun. He’s currently procrastinating on writing more short fiction by writing a computer science PhD dissertation instead, which is neither fiction nor short. He lives in Durham, North Carolina with his wife and their dog. He has a blog at grant-collier.com, and is on Bluesky at @grantcollier.bsky.social.
