Born in the middle of nowhere in Africa and currently living in the middle of nowhere in the Middle East, Heidi likes to think of herself as a citizen of the world.  She is the mum of three amazing girls who take turns making her want to hug them, brag about them and sometimes hide in the loo from them.

After getting her BA in English language and literature and her teaching diploma, she spent 5 years as a high school English teacher and freelance writer working on literature-based course books. Heidi joined Samhain Publishing in the summer of 2007 as an acquisitions and content editor and since then has enjoyed working with a fantastic group of talented authors. As well as editing for Samhain, Heidi also works as a freelance editor for authors looking to self-publish their books.

She frequently rambles, sometimes rants and genuinely tries to make sense (although it might not always show). She also hates talking about herself in 3rd person
