Canadian, biologist, award-winning and now CSFFA Hall of Fame author/editor, Julie E. Czerneda has shared her curiosity about living things and optimism about life through her science fiction and fantasy, published by DAW Books, NY. With her partner Roger Czerneda, she lives in a small town outside Ottawa, Ontario, in a grand century home with plenty of room for her books and his photographs. When not walking along the river or wilding their yard, they’ll be off to canoe Algonquin Park, their happy place.

My First Collection

Imaginings

We celebrated my 25th anniversary in fiction and DAW with a collection of my short stories for you. I’ve added notes to each and, bonus? There’s an all-new Night’s Edge novella! Cover and interior design by Roger H. Czerneda.

My Latest SF

To Each This World
To Each This World

I went big in my latest science fiction standalone (my new aliens included) to explore what I find most intimate and precious about us. Community. Curiosity and imagination. Above all, the drive to understand what isn’t us at all.

More Marrowdell!

A Change of Place
A Change of Place

Jenn Nalynn. The truthseer, Bannan Larmensu. House toads galore and, of course, the return of Wisp, a most-opinionated dragon. Those you (and I) loved from A Turn of Light are back, with more wonder, wild magic, and surprises!


My April

Yes! My spring and summer involve writing the fifth and final novel of Night’s Edge, A Twist of Magic (out in 2026). And gardening. Camping prep, oh yes, and walks (between the silly one-day snow storms that keep happening). Love this time of year in the Northern Hemisphere!
