Storylines in this amusing collection: A delightful fantasy voyage that puts a new twist on Alzheimer's disease; a drunk, down about as far as she can go, is ready to give up until she meets a different kind of alien, right there in the gutter; a robot suffers from comical depression, and a bad case of religion; because of a long dead, prehistoric woman, two space faring, aging scientists give up their chance for fame and save a world; another world regains life due to one woman's faith; and a not-quite-virgin meets a dragon with a sensitive stomach.

"Being God Is Hard gave even my seasoned editors a chill, and it takes a lot to do that . . . One quickly realizes this is not 'fluff' genre fiction, rather a thought-provoking array of stories laced with bold social commentary."
    —Greg Gifune, The Edge
