Who is Maria Baias?
I am a scientist and a Sci-Fi/Fantasy writer currently working on my first book series, a Young Adult (YA) Space Opera, cruising the universe, meeting lots of alien species, and enjoying adventures on different planets.
A great source of inspiration for my Sci-Fi & Fantasy worlds is found right here, on our home planet, a place filled with many wonders of its own, which are the topic of my YouTube channel and my blog, "Wonders of Heritage".
