R.S. Vern is the creator of book trilogy series: Haee and the Other Middlings. Part I of this series wins the International IndieReader Discovery Award 2013.

An oddly conflicted soul, she finds herself constantly torn between the challenges of saving the world and the realities of making a living. She calls herself a middling – detach, insecure, and most of the time, in a flux.

Haee is a real cat living in her home. Instead of writing as herself, she feels that it is less brutal seeing life through the eyes of a cat.

R.S. Vern holds a B.A. in English Literature, an M.A. in Communications, and a G.D. in Applied Positive Psychology.

R.S. Vern, also known as Vernice Chua, is the founder of Middling Industries.

“An ordinary man can enjoy breakfasting on juice and rye bread.
But when you are underfed, scorned, miserable or just plain bored, you don’t want to eat dull wholesome food.
You want something a little more colourful, exciting, tastier, meatier and juicier.”
R.S. Vern, The Unconventional Life of Haee

“Looking can make you want. Wanting can get you thinking. If you want them to stop thinking, just give them what they want.”
R.S. Vern

“There will always be road construction in life, and never a point when all the highways are fixed. Keep walking.”
