Hello, everyone, I'm Heidi. I'm an MG/YA writer.
I used to not admit to it because, well, we've all been closet writers at one time. But my big step was when I was traveling a few years ago, filling out one of those customs forms, and I wrote "writer" in the career/job box.
Anyway, I live in Colombia (South America) with my husband and lots of plants (we just bought an apartment so we don't have furniture), have published some non fiction pieces with Highlights, and my first non fiction book is coming out sometime next year.
I love this site. I'm afraid I've begun to visit this site more than write, so now I have VerlaKay time set aside, or else I just piddle and avoid that looming "writer's block" possibility.
Yes, I've written too much for a simple intro. Sorry. Thanks so much for all the great information and support. Nice to meet you all!
(Wow, that was stressful. I guess I can be a bit shy with introductions! Next time I'll have a shot of aguardiente before plunging in.)
