Sharon Lee and Steve Miller live in the rolling hills of
Central Maine. Born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland, they
met several times before taking the hint and formalizing the
team in 1979. They removed to Maine with cats, books, and
music following the completion of Carpe Diem, their third novel.
Their short fiction, written both jointly and singly, has
appeared or will appear in numerous anthologies and
magazines, including Catfantastic, Such a Pretty Face,
Murder and Magic, Absolute Magnitude, 3SF, and several
incarnations of Amazing.
Meisha Merlin Publishing has or will be publishing ten
novels cleverly disguised as seven books in Steve and
Sharon's Liaden UniverseŽ — Partners in Necessity, Plan
B, Pilots Choice, I Dare, Balance of Trade and two as yet
untitled —The Tomorrow Log, first of the Gem ser'Edreth
adventures, and Low Port, edited by Sharon and Steve. Sharon
has also seen a mystery novel, Barnburner, published by Embiid.
I Dare has been an Amazon.com and a Locus magazine
bestseller. Pilots Choice was a finalist for the Pearl
Award; and both Scout's Progress and Local Custom (included
in Pilots Choice) won the first and second place
(respectively) Prism Award for best SF Romance of 2001.
Both Sharon and Steve have seen their non-fiction work and
reviews published in a variety of newspapers and magazines.
Steve was the founding curator of the University of
Maryland's Kuhn Library Science Fiction Research Collection,
and former Nebula Award juror. Sharon served three years as
the executive director of the Science Fiction and Fantasy
Writers of America, Inc. and is the current president of
that organization.
Sharon's interests include music, pine cone collecting, and
seashores. Steve also enjoys music, plays chess, and
collects cat whiskers. Both spend way too much time playing
on the internet.
