About Heather
I've been a writer since the tender age of nine when I was bitten by a Jabberwocky, entered a state of literary amazement, and never fully recovered.
For 15 years, I was a Silicon Valley copy editor, juggling engineering jargon. Now I'm a picture book author, juggling family and writing. I write in a variety of flavors: fictional stories filled with heart, nonfiction at the intersection of poetry and nature, and verse (both lovely and wacky). Aside from my picture book characters, I live with my inspiring kids and rocket-scientist husband in Redwood City, California. I'm an active member of several writers' groups, the 12x12 Challenge, and the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI). My nonfiction picture picture book, SMALL MATTERS: The Hidden Power of the Unseen, is available through all major distributors and lernerbooks.com. SMALL MATTERS offers readers (ages 4-9) a peek at nano-sized animal features, through a scanning electron microscope. Check out this excerpt and see for yourself why small MATTERS.
