Parker Ragland tends to write about robots having existential crises, and sometimes humans having existential crises. He is interested in slice-of-life science fiction, speculating about the intimate effects of technology on humanity. 

Currently, he works as a software technical writer. Before that, he studied law—focusing on technology policy—and he served as Executive Editor of the Colorado Technology Law Journal, in which “net neutrality” was coined.

Parker’s fiction has appeared in Clarkesworld, Folio, and The Dread Machine.

He lives in Seattle.
