H.C. Playa is a scientist by day and a writer by nights, weekends and holidays, assuming she isn't stuck at the lab. A precocious reader by age 4, books have been a lifelong love for H.C. She began writing during a career hiatus to save her sanity from an overload of "Barney" and "Dora the Explorer" episodes, and discovered she loved it. Since then, she has published multiple short stories and books, including the "Crossroads of Fate" series and "Of the Other" series. You can find her on most social media platforms, but she's probably in the lab or writing rather than posting.
