About

Chris Miller is a soft­ware devel­oper by trade and a writer by neces­sity. Most of his major achieve­ments have been some com­bi­na­tion of these two things:

• He was the sci­ence fic­tion edi­tor for Book­stacks Unlim­ited, the first book­store doing busi­ness on the Inter­net (via tel­net in 1992).
• He is a co-founder and lead devel­oper of Podiobooks.com, one of the lead­ing sites for inde­pen­dent audio fiction.
• He was one of the cre­ators and hosts of the Parsec-nominated Nanomon­keyspod­cast, which gave advice to writer work­ing their way through National Novel Writ­ing Month.
• He has lent his voice tal­ents to pod­casts such as Escape Pod, Mur­der at Ave­don Hill, and Meta­mor City.

His cur­rent projects include:

• Hack To The Future, a monthly col­umn for Star­burst magazine
• The Secret Lair, an online mag­a­zine and pod­cast ded­i­cated to world dom­i­na­tion and the plight of the grown-up geek. From an undis­closed loca­tion near Cleve­land Ohio, Over­lords Chris Miller and Kris John­son are joined by a stel­lar cast of con­trib­u­tors to share with you the tri­als, tra­vails, and trivia of being a mod­ern day work­ing stiff with a strong escapist streak.

In the past, he has also been a writer/publisher of role-playing games, a BBS sysop, a barista, a maker of golf clubs, a medieval­ist, an edi­tor, and a Doc­tor Who fan. He lives in Ohio with his very tal­ented wife, two daugh­ters, one son, one frog, and one cat.
