She always liked writing poetry and one boring night decided to try her hand at a short story, however the book had other ideas. Now we find that Lost River's Carnival grew to Lost River Chronicles as four books are emerging from one short story. Spending a lot of time revising her books is a passion that she can't seem to step away from. Perfecting the emotional pull this series has on her readers is a challenge that she has placed upon herself. Even in the rawest form, many praises were sung about these books. Readers were begging for the next chapter as they try to help edit. However, most got so lost in the story that editing soon took a back seat. This energy and demand only fueled Heidi on to keep writing and worry about editing later. Now done with her second book, she can't take it anymore and is taking a break while she attempts to get all her edits perfect...no easy task.view less
