Quite an interesting career path.

Most of Scalzi's work is more traditional sci-fi (which I enjoy). I haven't read "Redshirts" yet because the blurb seemed so unlike that genre... but Starter Villian makes me think that I might enjoy it anyway (and it did win some awards). "Constituent Service" is a short one with some similar humor... and the description of "When the Moon Hits Your Eye" (moon actually turns to cheese) implies some humor as well.
