H.Y. Gregor was born in Portland, Oregon, but she’ll always call the mountains of Colorado home (where as a kid she was usually reading a book with a flashlight under the covers at night). In college she interned for congressional offices and law firms, and has a bachelor’s degree in political science. She soon discovered office life was not for her. This brought her full circle back to childhood ambitions of being a writer to bring new, fantastical stories to life. After narrowly avoiding law school, she now puts her international relations and government background to use creating intricate, colorful worlds to serve as backdrops for her fantasy fiction novels.
In 2022 her short story, A Secret Spoken, received a Silver Honorable Mention from the Writers of the Future contest. Her short fiction can be found in Animal Magica Volume 2, by Tanya Hales, and Particular Passages 4: South Wing, by Knight Writing Press, with more exciting projects in the works. She can be often be found at writing conferences with an overstuffed messenger bag and too many pens. When not writing, she laughs hysterically at the concept of ‘free time’ and enjoys hiking and adventuring with her family.
