About Me

Heather Anne Nielsen

Writer and illustrator

I’m Heather Nielsen, an indefatigable scribbler from age five upward. I achieved fame early in life, receiving the Young Author’s Award in first grade for my compelling work: A Day at the Beach. Since those heady days, I’ve run several humor blogs (all of which, sad to say, are currently defunct. (R.I.P., MySpace. Tom was too pure for this world.) Currently I spend my days as a freelance content/copywriter, artist, and New England meanderthal. I am also querying a YA Sci Fi adventure, and making headway on a paranormal murder mystery and a YA drama.

Other passions include reading, making a perfect cup of tea, and exploring the outdoors with my husband. Who might also, I suppose, count as a passion.
