Hi Robert, i'm a huge fan of Destiny and after finding out no novels exist is set about looking into who wrote for Bungie, I found Marrow and i've been bouncing off your themes in that while writing short pieces within the Destiny universe. I read in an interview with Carksworld you have also other writing set in the Destiny universe. Is there any where to read this online?
Robert Reed
Thanks for the question.
Bungie hired me to generate ideas that were never used, and building plot scenarios and locations that might or might show up someday. The only works of mine that were published are a few of the grimoires from the first Destiny. I don't know which ones, though another player once contacted me to say that some of them sounded like. Whatever that means.
Writing these tiny, tiny stories was fun. My boss let me go crazy: "As many as 500 words, and then I'll cut it down." Which means that every word has to matter. Good training for an aging author.
Simple answer: A couple dozen grimoires are mine -- at the most -- and though I played the game hard after it came out, I never bothered to track down what was mine.

Hello sir, I'm mostly a reader of anthologies such as those of Gardner Dozois & L.Ron Hubbard Presents. Despite that though, I seem to have missed a lot of your short stories, according to the list on isfdb.org. it's been a while since the last collection... Anything such in the works?
